Book Reviews of The Lathe Book: A Complete Guide to the Machine and its Accessories

Book Review: Misleading Tiltle
Summary: 3 Stars

I bought this book because of its title - A Complete Guide to the Machine and Its Accessories. The book is far from COMPLETE as it has absolutely no reference whatsoever to metal turning lathes, accessories or practices.

As it pictures a "Wood turning lathe" on the cover and is totally dedicated to the wood turners lathe then the cover title should state the same e.g. "A Complete Guide to the Wood Turning Lathe and Its Accessories"

Getting away from an incorrect title, the books content is very good with plenty of pictures, illustrations and examples of how to operate and use the wood turners lathe.
