A Machine Shop Companion for the Manual Vertical Milling Machine

				

				

					By Dale Grover
				

				

					Whether purchasing a milling machine or looking to get more comfortable with the one you have, this is the book for you. The intended goal of this book is to increase the odds that your next project on the vertical milling machine will be successful, safe, and efficient. 
Machining is one of those tasks that requires a good deal of knowledge from multiple sources, though many instructional books fall short of getting you to the point of feeling confident enough to flip the switch and cut metal. This book will answer the many questions a home machinist needs to have answered prior to machining.
Subjects include: workholding, tooling, toolholding, speeds and feeds, mill accessories, and more.
