Editorial Review: Product Description: A complete self-tuition course which assumes no previous experience of using the milling machine; through the medium of four minor and four magor projects, it leads prospective users of the milling machine through all of the techniques involved. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Not for the noviceI purchased #34 and #35. I am just getting into machining and these books do not have any detail to them just a few tips and detailed drawings. I got the feeling he was in a hurry to get them done. I think later they will be useful but for now I am still looking for a good book that teaches the basics to those of us who are just starting out. I gave it 2 stars for the missleading title! This is not! a complete course. Rating:  - This book is almost useless.I bought this book to learn how to run a mill I had just purchased. The first chapter explains what a mill cutter and a vice are. The second explains how to make T-nuts that I had already purchased. Chapter 3 instructs the reader to go to your lathe, which I don't have, and make a tool necessary to go any further in the book. So, if you don't have a lathe, or any intention to buy one, this book is a waste of money. It's also written in "english" english rather than "american" english and every ...

Most of what he has done can be made to work and work great. Still he make dove tails using a backwards was to do it half arsed. Use the right tools if you are going to machine things then buy the tools to machine them when you have to. Some of the photos need to be a little clearer so we would understand better. I do like some of the small project he thinks we need and he is right ...

It is, however, a good book for a starter for somebody who's bought a small home mill and has discovered that it's missing even the most basic tools and has no real instructions with it. I've been a machinist since the mid-1980's and have plenty of practice and tools, and there were even a few items among the projects that I intend to build. Given the price, if you've just bought a small mill and haven't the foggiest ... Read More Rating:  - Harold Hall FanI have bought three of Harold Hall's books, and they have all been read, used and re-read. His writing is clear, expert, well illustrated with clear photographs and drawings and the projects are very suitable to anyone starting in this fascinating field of metal working. They are good bed side reading and/or workshop guides for the actual projects. The books in the Workshop Practice Series are compact, about 128 pages, but contain a surprisingly large amount of information, and are good ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
