Great book ! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for anyone likes to machine work *by V***H on October 26, 2018* Enjoy to read and great tips ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good information, mediocre photos *by J***R on December 20, 2016* Photos are just not as clear as I have come to expect from anything published after 2000. Information is good, but this is the sort of book that relies on photos and illustrations, and they are far from optimal. Still helpful as a wannabe machinist, so 4 stars. ## Frequently Bought Together - Useful Machine Shop Tools to Make for Home Shop Machinists (Fox Chapel Publishing) 15 Simple, Useful Additions to Your Workshop Equipment, from a Micrometer Stand to a Self-Releasing Mandrel Handle - Metalworking for Home Machinists: 53 Practical Projects to Build Yourself (Fox Chapel Publishing) How to Make Clamps, Vices, Jigs, Fixtures, Lathe Projects, & Other Ancillary Devices for Your Workshop - 16 Metalworking Workshop Projects for Home Machinists: Practical & Useful Ideas for the Small Shop (Fox Chapel Publishing) Unique Designs - Auxiliary Workbench, Tap Holders, Lathe Backstop, and More --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/21271350-useful-machine-shop-tools-to-make-for-home-shop-machinists](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/21271350-useful-machine-shop-tools-to-make-for-home-shop-machinists) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-10-01*
