Basic Machining Reference Handbook - $39.95

|
As a comprehensive and
easy-to-use hands-on source, Basic Machining Reference
Handbook is intended to serve as a memory jog for the
experienced, as well as a reference for programmers and
others who will not do the machining but do need to know
exactly what's involved in performing a given machining
step, a series of steps, or a complete job.
Remaining true to its
original approach, the new second edition continues to
present the principles of basic machining, while
summarizing the major considerations involved.
Logically organized, this
time-tested reference starts with those machining steps
that most often begin the machining process and moves
through the basic machining operations.
It is a must-have
resource for experienced machinists; programmers;
tooling, design and production engineers; and students.
