machining literature

[BrokenBiker]

ive got a copy of the zeus precision data charts covering threads, hole positions, morse tapers, bending calculations for sheet metal etc but what other books would be a good addition to a small home workshop? mostly aimed at turning, but milling literature could be handy too.

All your questions will be answered here, cheapish to buy depending on Edition No, basically it's the engineering bible.

For manual machining up to 20th edition after that it gets into CNC type stuff more.

My favorite is the Eighteenth edition, but I have several editions including a re-print of the first......

thank you, will get one ordered

out of intereset, what makes the 18th edition better in your eyes?

I'm into manual machines, they've updated the editions as processes change and new methods evolve, the sections have been edited. Plus reorganised.

I personally find the 18th edit the easiest to find my way around, and the the best layed out information for me to understand.

It's just the way my brain works...
