This book provides the detailed knowledge you need to successfully choose, install, and operate a milling machine in your home workshop. Heavily illustrated with color photographs and diagrams, understand which accessories are essential and which can be postponed until your activity demands it. The usage of each machine and accessory is explained in detail for the vast majority of applications in an active shop. Discover options for holding the many diverse shapes and sizes of work pieces that will inevitably surface during your machine's life. This critical task is by far the most important part of learning to use the machine. The Milling Machine will arm you with decision-making skills on which method is best for any application – whether to use a vice or an angle plate, mount the piece directly onto the worktable, or even produce a fixture specifically for the task. With the work piece set up and ready for machining, this book will show you the correct ways to cut metal and maintain all your milling tools.
The process of removing metal is not as simple as it may appear, but once the requirements are understood it will very quickly be mastered. However, choosing the method of mounting the workpiece and the order in which surfaces should be machined is a continuous learning process in view of the large number of workpiece shapes that will occur. Therefore, in terms of the time taken for machining a complete part, the process will typically be 40% deciding the method, 40% setting it up and only 20% actual machining – often even less machining time than that.
The various methods are therefore discussed in depth and illustrated by examples of actual set-ups. In a nutshell, therefore, the book works through choosing the machine and its accessories, mounting the workpiece using the chosen method of securing it, and finally machining the part. While this follows the actual workshop process, it is not easy to totally separate the use of the machine into these three sections, so do read the whole book before making any decisions regarding with what to equip the workshop.
Parts of this book were updated for today’s American reader with regard to new techniques and tools. These updates were graciously provided by George Bulliss of The Home Shop Machinist, Machinist’s and Digital Machinist magazines.
