Machine Shop Trade Secrets

Textbook - Machine Shop Trade Secrets ISBN: 0831132272
Binding: Paperback
Edition:
Author(s): James Harvey
Publisher: Industrial Press, Inc.
Number of Pages: 320

James Harvey has written an excellent book that fills a void in current metalworking instructional books Most textbooks are aimed at the beginner in the machining trade and cover basic work practice admirably What textbooks do not do is sit you down with a veteran of the trade who can fill you in on the tips and tricks that allow working faster accurately and intelligently What amazed me is at how all these tips are not recycled versions of the ones we are all familiar with (as published by Lindsay's books and others) but are new tips all useful and pertinent to the tools and methods of today
Nicholas Carter
