"You'll find a wide range of reference material between the covers of this book, selected and presented specifically for the model engineer. Its tables and charts are designed to provide practical information for the types of machinery and projects typically found in the home shop. Because the model engineering hobby has its roots in the UK, a tremendous amount of printed material, plans, and kits for the hobby machinist have come out of the UK in the last hundred or so years. The inclusion in this book of hard-to-find information on old British standards and their conversions may not be useful to every reader, but it will certainly be welcome by any North American hobbyist trying to make sense of one of the classic designs from across the pond."—George Bulliss, The Home Shop Machinist magazine From the Back Cover You'll find a wide range of reference material between the covers of this book, selected and presented specifically for the model engineer.
