Description
Gearing of Lathes for Screwcutting is aimed specifically at the engineer for use in the workshop. It is intended to take away as much as possible of the mathematics and mystique from calculating gear ratios, so that the more enjoyable work of using your lathe to make things becomes as easy as possible. Topics covered in this latest addition to the Crowood Metalworking Guides includes Myford and other types of lathes; approximations and alternatives; errors and their significance and the non-gearbox mini-lathe.
Features and reviews in Model Engineers Workshop, Model Engineer and Engineering in Miniature. Reviews in Metalworking World, Crafts and Craft & Design magazines.
