Metal spinning for craftsmen, instructors, and students

This book has been written in response to a great number of requests which have been received by us from industrial-arts instructors and craftsmen who wish to know more about metal spinning. We have tried, in this book, to meet the needs of students who have had little or no experience in this subject, as well as to be of assistance to the craftsman, who is already doing a limited amount of metal spinning, using ordinary lathes which may be found in home and school shops. Contents: I. Historical Facts About Metal Spinning; II. Interest Appeal Of Metal Spinning; III. The Mechanical Set-Up For Metal Spinning; IV. Spinning Tools; V. Chucks For Metal Spinning; VI. The Treatment Of The Different Metals; VII Lubricants Used In Metal Spinning; VIII Technique Of Metal Spinning; IX. Projects; X. Appendix For Teachers.
