Online and Downloadable Old Workshop Books
I thought I should share this source of old books available online and to download.http://archive.org/search.php?query=subject:"Machine-shop practice"&page=1
The second link here is an example of these old books and should open at a page which will then allow you to click to turn pages for a little light holiday reading.I have downloaded some to a Kindle as well for the ultimate use of holiday quiet time out of the Workshop.Methods of machine shop work : for apprentices and students in technical and trade schoolsCheers from Micheal.

For those interested in the difference between the metric and imperial camps this book has a very good reference in the first chapter. It is just too big to be uploaded as a PDF to this page so here is a link to download it for yourself. Very simple description of making a master reference block to compare to the standard.
