Build Your Own Metalworking Shop from Scrap: Series Set

A progressive series of projects in seven volumes. Beginning with a simple charcoal fired foundry you produce the castings for building the machine tools to equip your shop. Initially the castings are finished by simple hand methods, but it isn't long before the developing machines are doing much of the work to produce their own parts. It does not take long to learn the simple craft of pattern-making and sand molding. Each phase of the projects increase your knowledge and skill. There is no need to look for outside help. You can do it all in your own shop. No complicated math.....no exotic equipment required.....no large cash outlay. Lots of work to be sure, and some of it can be downright tedious, but the reward will be a practical small scale machine shop that you might never give yourself permission to buy, assuming you could afford it. And there is also the pride in knowing you've done it all yourself., ISBN13: 9780960433087 ISBN10: 0960433082 Material Type: paperback
