Tabletop Machining by Joe Martin Tabletop Machining by Joe Martin
On Sale! Normally $40.00
The "hows" and the "whys" of machining at both ends of the size scale
Being a hobbyist himself as well as a manufacturer, Joe Martin is familiar with the needs of both the home shop machinist
and the commercial production facility.
His insights offer a unique and practical perspective on equipment and processes of machining at both extremes...from
intricate miniature projects to full size shop production tools and practices.
Information and inspiration for machinists...new or experienced.
This book details "real world" practices in machining and gives a good insight into the challenges faced by
machinists.
Too often good craftsmen are stopped from venturing forth because the only information available shows only the
technically perfect way to do things rather than the simple, practical methods everyone really uses.
This book should be required reading for all newly graduated engineers. For those wishing to design and build their first
metal parts it is a perfect starting point.
Naturally, Sherline tools are featured throughout in the examples, but the rules of machining apply to all types of
equipment and sizes of projects.
Information is given on selecting materials; using a lathe and a mill; measuring and measurement tools; cutting tools;
joining metal (welding and soldering); using accessories for threading, indexing and gear cutting; setting up a home
shop;
contests and information resources for machinists and much more. Plans and instructions for several simple projects are
provided for beginning machinists.
A gallery of photos of superb miniature projects will inspire you, while personal profiles of six different craftsmen show
how others approach various aspects of metalworking.
A history of Sherline tools is written from the point of view of giving you some guidance if you've ever thought of taking
a product of your own to market. If you like tools and working on small, intricate projects, you should plan on adding
this book to your library.
Printing quality you'd expect in a book that chronicles the quest for perfection. Printed on 344 pages of high quality,
glossy paper, this large 8 1/2 x 11" soft-bound book is packed with over 400 color photos and many informative line
drawings by Craig Libuse.
The "lay-flat" binding makes it easy to read and use as a reference. The 12-point cover is laminated with a plastic
coating to protect it. Everything about this book was done as well as we could possibly do it.
Joe considers putting this book together one of the harder things he has done in a life full of challenges and
accomplishments. We think you will agree the effort was worthwhile.
If you have any modeling or machinist friends that you never know what to get for Christmas, this book just might solve
your problem.
Now in its third printing, the book has been a continued hot seller. The third edition includes 8 more pages with new
information on the history of Sherline and a number of new photos.
The first chapter has also been rewritten and a new chapter on "CNC in the home shop" was added.
