    Default lathe and milling machine dvds?

    Hi,

    Just wondering if there are any lathe and milling machine dvds available. Looking for something aimed at a beginner.

    I've used a lathe before to do basic operations such as removing material from round stock and drilling through round stock via drill bit mount in the tail stock.

    I pretty much would like to start from the beginning and learn my way through some of the more advanced parts.

    I have a copy of the Fitting and Machining books which has been a good read, but it's always easier to see how something is done rather than reading (for me anyway)

    I thought about doing a short course at tafe but at the moment time is a problem and as I don't have a lathe at the moment it makes it hard to practice.

    So is there any DVDs available that would be of interest to me?

    Thanks

    There are some videos available for download from this site:

    MIT TechTV – Search results for “machine shop 1”

    Little Machine Shop in the US also sells a series of metal working DVDs.

    Those MIT ones look great! Should educate and keep me busy for awhile.

    Thanks
