Very Nice!!

Always have a soft spot for those lathes. Had a few hours on them in high school metal shop in the sixties and later at the Merchant Marine Academy. I keep hoping to find one someday in Australia.

If you are not a machinist by trade, this book is an excellent source of info and was the "bible" for students. I've had it since 1970. It has the usual great graphics, photos, and straight forward language typical of most American tech books. I am not even sure if it may not be still in print but no doubt they are available somewhere.

All the best,
