Harold Hall worked as an electrical control systems engineer for thirty-five years before becoming editor of Model Engineer's Workshop magazine. He is the author of numerous books on workshop practice, including Metal Lathe for Home Machinists, The Metalworker's Workshop for Home Machinists, Milling for Home Machinists, and The Milling Machine for Home Machinists.
From drill sizes, turning tools, and thread data to screw cutting combinations, electrical components, and hardware dimensions, Metalworker's Data Book for Home Machinists covers 31 categories of essential data that will assist the metalworker both at the design stage of a project and during its manufacture in the workshop. A valuable resource for machinists working to current standards, it includes details of the latest metric thread forms. In one concise volume, it provides data that are otherwise available only by reference to many different sources or more expensive publications. This comprehensive data book offers a wide range of reliable information, useful in both the metalworking workshop and for those designing engineered items, tools, and machines. And for those involved in restoration work, the book also offers details related to systems that are no longer widely used and for which data is not easy to locate.
