Using a project-based course, this classic reference provides a complete introduction to the popular craft of metalworking with a lathe. It assumes no prior knowledge and advances you through a series of practice projects that deliver a wealth of practical skills and an understanding of how to master all the necessary metalworking workshop tools and equipment.
Metal Lathe for Home Machinists takes beginners through all of the basic techniques needed to tackle a wide range of machining operations. Twelve lathe turning projects are provided to develop confidence and make you an accomplished home shop machinist. Each project is designed to develop essential lathe skills you will use again and again.
All of the projects are extensively illustrated, and full working drawings accompany the text. The book advances from basic projects to higher levels of difficulty as the course progresses, taking you from a simple surface gauge, specially designed to provide basic turning, to a milling cutter chuck, where precision and concentricity are vital. After completing this course, you will have amassed a wealth of practical skills and a range of useful workshop tools and equipment.
