Mini-lathe Tools and Projects: 48 (Workshop Practice Series)

This is a good little book if you are after a source of tweaks and improvements for your Mini-Lathe, the alterations and suggestions for improving the machine are extremely helpful. I have one basic criticism; it does not seem to have been properly proof-read and the absence of a few important drawings, measurements, and photographs has been allowed to slip through into print. This is irritating rather than a reason not to buy the book, as it is reasonably easy to work out what isn't shown , but it might put less experienced operators in a bit of a spin. I like the fact that there is a choice of designs for a taper turning attachment, and the four suggestions for coping with the annoying little habit the lathe has of having its gib strips going loose under the saddle. As I said, basically an excellent little book

Lots of info for begginers.
