Metal working book ideas...

sklimek · 9th August 2005, 02:53 AM

I'm looking for a good illustrative and informative book on metal working that would include - cutting, drilling, tapping, anodizing, etching, polishing etc.

I saw from a search 'Metal Working' by Paul Hasluck, 2,206 illustrations and 760 pages from 1907 but I was thinking that this may be more blacksmithing AND the 'Machinests Handbook' but this may be more of a reference book for the tool and die professional.

Any thots???

I have a couple of them and they are pretty good. Written in a down to earth fashion. Could be usefull depending on your skill level.
