Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Essential reading for the beginner and experienced machinist
This book provides a host of practical tips and tricks to make machining operations easier, faster and more accurate. The author covers lathe and milling operations as well as getting the best results when marking out and hand tool operations such as thread forming. Great to pick up and flick through or read from cover to cover. I have gleaned some very useful tips from this book that I have not read/heard about elsewhere. Written in an easy to understand style with a good balance of technical detail.

Very good and easy to understand.Wish it was higher level but good all the same.

So I kept waiting to find it on sale, I did and now that I've read it, I'm sorry I waited. It's well worth the price and I should have paid it.
