Well, it depends. For small desktop machines, I have a copy of Joe Martin's "Table Top Machining", ISBN 0-9665433-0-0 as well as Doug Briney's "The Home Machinist's Handbook, ISBN 0-8306-1573-3. Both are pretty decent, the latter is what I trained my high school student machine shop leaders on. NEITHER is adequate substitution for actual machining time, standing on the shop and watching the chips curl off.
There are a few very helpful discussion groups on yahoo. groups.yahoo.com, the groups sherline and taigtools seems to have pretty decent advice going. There's also rec.crafts.metalworking, accessable via the google groups feature. Hope this helps! -=- Terence |
