Mini-Lathe for Home Machinists

Regular informacion

All good

If you own a mini-lathe, this book is nearly a must-have. While you might not use or need all of the information, it will enlighten you about some issues and tricks, as well as solutions for getting the most out of your mini-lathe. While some info is UK-specific, and not always in American English, I don't think this diminishes the value of this book, as other reviewers have suggested. Some of the products he suggests buying do have UK references, but you can get the same stuff in the USA (sometimes made in Britain but available here). There's a bit about rebuilding certain parts of the mini-lathe to make it work better. There are several templates and tooling projects in the book that you can build to improve the utility of your lathe. If you use just a quarter of the knowledge contained in the book, this purchase is worth it.
