Build
Your Own
Metal Working
Shop from Scrap
HARDBACK EDITION OF THE 7 VOLUME SET
David J Gingery
David J Gingery Publishing, 2013. Brand new hardback. ISBN 1878087355.
Includes the following volumes available separately.
Charcoal
Foundry
80 pages. This is the first book
in Gingery's series showing you how to build a complete metal
working shop from scrap for almost nothing. You must have the
foundry setup in order to build the lathe, milling machine and other
tools described in each of the other books. Castings make strong and
precise machine tool components. You'd go broke buying the castings,
if they were available, but you can make them for almost nothing in
your own foundry.
The
Metal Lathe
128 pages. Build a 7"
capacity metal cutting lathe accurate to .001". 12"
between centers. 5" swing over saddle. Uses castings produced
by the charcoal foundry. Cost only about $50 (fifteen years ago).
Some incredible lathes have been built as a result of this classic
book. You can do it, too. Detailed, proven how-to.
The
Metal Shaper
144 pages. Build a shaper!
5x5 capacity with 6" stroke. Variable speed. Automatic variable
cross feed. This is no toy! There is hardly an easier and cheaper
way to cut keyways, splines, dovetail slides, irregular profiles and
more.
The
Drill Press
128 pages. Sure you can buy
one. But what will you pay for one that drills a 1" hole with
ease? And can you brag that you built it yourself? Quill feed is 2
1/2". Double reduction provides 260 rpm low speed.
The
Milling Machine
128 pages. Sure you can
buy one. But what will you pay for one that drills a 1" hole
with ease? And can you brag that you built it yourself? Quill feed
is 2 1/2". Double reduction provides 260 rpm low speed.
Dividing
Head and Deluxe Accessories
160 pages.
Build a four jaw chuck and thread cutting gears for your Gingery
lathe. Build an indexing head that gives all even and multiples of 5
through 100. And more!
Designing
and Building the Sheet Metal Brake
52
pages. Build an 18" wide sheet metal brake from common steel.
Some arc welding needed. Has been successfully scaled up by a number
of craftsmen.
