The book runs through the basics of a Myford lathe & then tells you about installing & levelling it. Lathe tool selection & regrinding are covered in detail followed by how to mount work in the lathe. General turning, drilling & boring are covered as well as threading & screw cutting. Milling, gear cutting, & taper turning each have their own section, as does repetition work. Drawings are given for a back tool post together with accessories. There is a section on useful formulas & tables & the book concludes with lubrication charts for the ML7, The ML7R & the Super 7 lathes. All In all, a very useful book which will find a home with most Myford users.
