//A comprehensive book for machinists with methods, tables ,measurement,application,demensions, definitions ETC, all you need to know are here! (the book have hypertext in contents to help you search easily)PREFACE Ever since the first printing of this book, the authors have been studying waj^s and means of making it better, and the addition of one hundred and sixty pages by no means gives an adequate idea of the extent to which it has been revised. Each section has been carefully studied to make it cover the changed and changing conditions of shop and drawing-room work in the hope of making it even more valuable than before. Many of the changes have been due to suggestions made by users of the Handbook, and we shall appreciate a continuance of their interest and assistance in pointing out possibilities of improvement.
