Covering everything from the basics of gear identification and their operating principles to the actual cutting of the gears, the book presents its subjects in the context of the home machinist's needs and resources. No machinist's library is complete without this one!"</p>-- "George Bulliss, The Home Shop Machinist magazine"<br>
