Screwcutting in the Lathe (Workshop Practice Series)

The book arrived promptly and well packaged, with correct postage pre-paid. The explanations and examples are well done for even the novice, me, to understand. I've just got my first mini-lathe and made many threads now, both external and internal. The book instructed me on what to buy in the way of tools and how to grind the correct angles to achieve the required thread. The section on setting up the lathe screw gears is heavy and very detailed. I read this through many times but still not sure I've grasped the theory, even though I've achieved some great threads of all sizes. 2BA to M3 to 20mm pipe connection on conduit. That's the largest size I can get through the bore of my headstock.

A modern printing of an old classic, from the late, talented, Martin Cleeve. I have an older version of this book, but this is a nice freah copy at a very reasonable price. The detail about threadforms is limited by the limited page count, but the information is both practical and useful.

This book will instruct anyone in great detail how to use a lathe for screwcutting and I am most impressed and pleased with it and highly recommend it to anyone who has never tried to cut screws.

IF YOUR LOOKING FOR BASICS ON LATHE THIS BOOK WILL DO YOU

If you order one of these, check straght away that all the pages are printed correctly. I've received 2 copies so far and both have pages printed upside down, wrong way around. According to the book my editions were printed (reprinted) 2003 & 2005.Other than that the book is VERY comprehensive, and mostly easy to read (upsdie down!)

This is a great book to learn thread cutting also gear ratio.All the formula for internal and external thread.must have for anyone wanting to thread on a lathe.

Packed with lots of information. If you are learning to make single cutter threads on a lathe, you will find this guide to be helpful.

Bel testo e ottimo prodotto, lunghissimi i tempi di arrivo, per altro ne ho ordinati di due tipologie ma per ora ne è arrivato uno solamente

Heavy reading. More detail than expected. Like a text book.

Good information. Lots of info on gear changes and the math behind various gears for various TPI's or metric threads. My lathe has a gear box, so 40% of the book was not of value to me. Easier to read than other books in the series. If your new to screwcutting on the lathe, youtube videos help a lot for the basic process. This book give you the math and technical information.
