About This Book

This practical manual instructs young readers in fundamental shop practice, beginning with selection and arrangement of tools and a basic workbench, then explaining grinding and sharpening, setting and holding lathe tools, and correct filing and sawing techniques. It introduces methods for commencing lathe and drilling work, precision measuring and tests, and offers illustrated descriptions of mechanical devices such as gears, pulleys, couplings, universal joints, escapements and clutches, along with guidance on using machines and attachments. Emphasis rests on practical procedure, proper tool angles and speeds, and careful technique.
