    Item is as exactly as described, and arrived just on time, packed well. As others have said, it wasn't exactly shipped at light speed, but it was a really good deal and everything went to plan. Just make sure you don't need the item for a month or so. (My order was placed May 12, with estimated delivery window May 22 - Jun 11. Tracking number was provided Jun 2, with delivery on Jun 11.)

    Seller took over a week to actually ship the product and I’m not sure why, though I’m still inclined to give them the benefit of the doubt, I dunno what their staffing situation is like. Regardless, product was exactly as described at a great price, and I have no other complaints.

  • Most critical review

    Bad reprint of the South Bend book

    The price is cheap enough, I guess. This is a very poor reprint of the South Bend "How To Run A Lathe" book. Nowhere in the ad does it say that it is a reprint. The pics are poor and very dark, very difficult to see what is supposed to be there. I have a copy of the original and it is FAR superior to this poor copy. Buy the real one.

  • Tip of the iceberg!

    Many of us out here appreciate finely made things. If you ever wondered how those things were made and had time and a suitable place to ponder such things, this book will awaken the can do spirit in every person. Is it enough? Hardly, but it is a beginning and a good one.

  • A must read

    If you are a machine operator, machinist or hobbyist then this is a good book to have in your repertoire.

  • Basic but uses old technology

    OK book if you have never operated a metal lathe before. Lathes depicted in the book are very old but it gets the point across.
