Description: Manual Description:Number of Pages: 48 This is a reproduction, not a photocopy, of an original Delta Getting the Most Out of Your Lathe book. This is a complete handbook covering all the branches of lathe operation in the home workshop with over two hundred photographic illustrations and line drawings. Please see index below. One reason that I've reprinted some of these older books is because they have a lot of information with illustrations that get directly to the point.
