Lathe Work for Beginners: A practical Treatise on Lathe Work with complete instructions for properly using the various tools, including complete directions for wood and metal Turning, Screw Cutting, Measuring Tools, Wood Turning, Metal Spinning etc., and instructions for Building Home-made Lathes with their attachments, etc., by Raymond Francis Yates, originally published by the Norman W. Henley Publishing Co., New York, NY, 1922. Reprinted by Lindsay Publications, Bradley, IL, 2003. 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 paperback, 240 pages. ISBN 1-55918-296-2. This book is out of print as of summer 2013. This is the last copy I have. About half the book is on the basics of lathe work -- as it was practiced in 1922. But then you get some info that is rarely seen elsewhere: how to build a small metal lathe, a small wood lathe, and a model gun, based on a more-or-less standard 6" naval gun used by the Americans and the French. The model has an 8 1/4 inch length barrel and fires a .25 calibre center fire bullet – SO BE CAREFUL and don’t hurt somebody, or even yourself! The book is richly illustrated, with 167 line drawings and b&w photos. Lindsay describes the metal lathe as “6 3/4 inch throw over dual tubular bed, ball thrust bearings with Babbitt bearings. Castings are needed. You can turn those out in aluminum, or cast iron if you have a cupola,” while “The wood lathe is a simple but interesting machine capable of rotating 6 1/2 cylinders over the bed.” Table of Contents: Choosing a Lathe Setting Up and Driving the Lathe The Lathe and its Parts Lathe Attachments and Their Use Measuring Tools and Their Use A Lesson in Metal Turning Advanced Lathe Work Screw Cutting Wood Turning Metal Spinning Building an Amateur's Metal Turning Lathe Building a Simple Wood Turning Lathe How to Build a Model Rapid-Fire Naval Gun.
