Lindsay Publications, 2003. Brand new paperback. Reprint of the 1922 Henley edition. 240 pages. ISBN 1559182962. A bit more than half the book is about the basics of lathe work as it was practiced in 1922. But then you get some info that is rarely seen elsewhere: how to build a small metal lathe, a small wood lathe, and a model gun. Chapters include: choosing a lathe, setting up and driving the lathe, the lathe and its parts, lathe attachments and their use, measuring tools and their use, a lesson in metal turning, advanced lathe work, screw cutting, wood turning, metal spinning, building an amateur's metal turning lathe, building a simple wood turning lathe, and how to build a model rapid-fire naval gun. By far, the best seller I've ever worked with. Many thanks yet again. (juliusdoug) Run For Cover's unusual books make wonderful, original presents!
