MINI LATHE TOOLS AND PROJECTS
WORKSHOP PRACTICE SERIES BOOK 48
This book follows on from the same author's introduction to the
Mini-Lathe (Workshop Practice Series No. 43) and presents a series of
projects which are intended to extend the versatility of this little
machine. In some cases, additional machining capacity will be required,
which some readers may find at their local model engineering club.
The
book covers the Mark 2 Mini-Lathe, and specific tools such as the radius
turning attachment, the tailstock and the dividing head, and includes
techniques such as taper turning and knurling.
Whilst specifically
written for the Mini-Lathe, some of the projects in this book can
equally be applied to other small model engineering lathes and in many
cases the concepts can be scaled to suit other equipment.
