Number of Pages: 36
This is one section of one of the best how to books I have ever seen. I have been collecting manuals and books for years now, and I feel that this book has presented the information that people need to know in a very direct and concise manner with great diagrams.
This book was put together for instructors during WWII, and it was a combined effort of some of the major lathe producing companies like South Bend, LeBlond & Regal, Brown & Sharpe and others. So the information in this book is universal and can be applied to any metal lathe.
So if you are wanting a book to learn more about how to set up and use a lathe; refresh your lathe skills; or just need information to check back to, these are a great set of direct and to the point books that will greatly help you.

Overview:
I have collected this information for many years and have found the information they contain to be priceless in using and setting up the machines properly. I believe this manual will be a valuable resource of knowledge that will provide a lot of helpful information that is often hard to find. My manuals are not photocopies. I maintain a high standard of quality in my reproductions. Most of the manuals I reproduce look better than their originals. I have professionally digitally edited every page, and removed stains, wrinkles and handwriting. All of the manuals are printed on thick white paper to withstand shop wear and tear.
