The Milling Machine for Home Machinists (Fox Chapel Publishing) Over 150 Color Photos & Diagrams; Learn How to Successfully Choose, Install, & Operate a Milling Machine in Your Home Workshop

This is a great book to get if you are thinking of getting into machining either as a hobby or even as a career as it has loads of informative photos as well as descriptions regarding the limitations of certain machines. Good to reference as well as there are special items that one forgets about because they are not used daily.

This is a well written book for the hobbyist just starting out. It covers the basics of using a milling machine with clear descriptions and illustrations. Most of the information is available on You Tube, but having the book in the shop is a great help. Highly recommended.

With few exceptions the author does not assume prior knowledge. When he does he refers to the source and chapter to gain the potential lack of knowledge. The use of pictures and diagrams also enhanced understanding for those of us that depend on visual reference. It is a good source for the amateur that has a craftsman bent.

Lots of good information. Recommend this book.

THE BOOK IS EXCELLENT, IN GREECE WILL FIND IT DIFFICULT TO FIND PERHAPS NOT SATISFIED.

Does not claim to be for beginners or machinists with limited experience but seems to assume a fair bit of knowledge/experience on the part of the reader. I find a lot of things to not be clear-cut. Probably better off watching videos online.

Good book for the basics.

This book does its best to cover every aspect of using the milling machine that might be faced by the novice machinist; whether hobbyist or budding professional and would be a good first read for someone thinking about purchasing a mill but not sure about the size machine to select.. It is certainly worth the price.

I got this for my brother and he raved about it. He said it would have saved him a lot of trouble if he had read it sooner...

Some info but not a lot about actually running a mill.

Nice . Informative and easy to understand

I enjoyed the content of this book and found it easy to read. I have purchased more from this author.

This book really got my attention. As a beginner in milling operations it help me understand all the specifics of the machine and how to use it as well as what else is needed.
