by Arnold Throp, #2 in the Workshop Practice Series
The increasing appearance of vertical milling machines in model engineer's and other small workshops has brought the versatility of this type of machine to the notice of a large and growing group of potential users, but until the first edition of this book was published in 1977 there was little available guidance for the average amateur or small user.
This third, and revised edition includes descriptions of many of the very wide range of operations possible with photographed examples, plus information on machines, accessories, cutters, chucks, requirements and methods of work-holding.
Anrold Throp enjoyed a long and successful engineering career starting with very large steam and oil engines and including gigh tension switchgear, mining machinery and machine tools. He has achieved over 55 years of membership of the Institute of Mechanical Engineers.
