    [QUOTE=Bryan;1518690]
    Phil are those your own copies or are they the ones that are available? I guess there won't be much difference between editions of the 3 volume version. That's why I said any vol 3 would do. QUOTE]

    Hi Bryan,
    these ones are mine. I will have a look in the shop to see if it is still there.

    I have volume 3 of fitting and machining course trade technology. It was published in the early 70's. I will have to look at the Tafe library next time I'm their.

    I have "grade two" from 1967 and the 2008 reprint. It still has some of the 1967 drawings in it.
    The 1967 book says
    First published 1965, reprinted 1967
    but the 2008 book says
    First published as threee separate volumes (Vol1-3) copyright 1957, 1966, 1972

    While not strictly machining, I'd suggest a copy of Connelly's "Machine tool reconditioning" for anyone who has a machine that is carrying some wear and would like to improve it. It's not a light read but does explain things in sufficient detail that you can understand the steps that need to be taken.

    Well it looks like the books I have are an entirely different and unrelated set then, makes sense really, one lot's Victorian TAFE and the other lot is Commonwealth Gov't.

    Thanks Phil, no rush.

    Has anyone got the Moltrecht books? They seem to be well regarded overseas.

    The latest (?) book from Harold Hall just came up in one of my Ebay searches

    Metal Lathe for Home Machinists By Harold Hall - NEW | eBay

    so I looked on The Book Depository and ordered it there for obvious reasons.

    Hi Bryan,
    I had a look for the book today and it is volume one. Sorry about that. There was a hard cover on how to use a Myford 7 lathe if anyone is interested.

    Is that Vol 1 of the Chapman books?
    If it's available to buy, I'd be interested.

    Hi Jordan,
    It's the same as the blue one on the left in Morrismans post #24.
