It assumes no prior knowledge and works through the process of using a home shop mill from beginning to end. Four minor and four major milling projects that carefully progress in difficulty are provided to gain basic skills and build expertise to create a series of useful and increasingly complex tools. The eight projects are extensively illustrated, with full workshop drawings accompanying the text. The wide range of projects includes items that are both useful and interesting to make, including an angle plate, clamps, parallels, boring head, dividing head, a grinding tool holder, and an excellent milling cutter sharpener.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><i>Milling for Home Machinists</i> is a project-based course that provides a complete introduction to milling and the use of the milling machine.
