ABOUT
The evolution of the compact, or portable, lathe has brought many a model
engineers life-long ambition to reality. No longer regarded as the scaled-down
variant of the long-established permanent workshop machine, they are purpose-designed
tools of remarkable ingenuity in their own right.
Compact lathes (such as the Unimat III, Peatol, Shearline and Cowell
range) are inexpensive, self-contained, adaptable to a broad range of machining
techniques and ideally suited for beginners and those with working space
restrictions.
Stan Brays comprehensive introduction to the subject covers the technology
and the components, the machining operations and facilities which will
enable the novice or experienced operator quickly to reach full proficiency
and achieve the highest standards of lathe work.
Fully updated in 2004 to cover the very latest in compact lathe technology
and with many completely new photographs.
