Tool Making: A Manual Of Practical Instruction In The Art Of Making Tools, With Many Hints On The Solution Of Problems Calling For Ingenuity And Mechanical Skill In The Devising Of Special Means

THE history of the development of the tool-making art is, of course, the history of the mechanical evolution of the country. The hand working tools came first and then with the invention of each' successive machine came the creation of tools to go with it. The gradual evolution of device methods brought an increase in the required accuracy of work and this, in turn, demanded more precise methods and greater skill on the part of the tool maker. Today, therefore, the large body of so-called "tool makers" represents the most skilled, the most inventive, and the most intelligent of the army of mechanics which forms the backbone of our large mechanical industries.
Many phases of this mechanical development have increased the importance of the tool maker — the introduction of high-speed steels, demanding greater skill in construction of the tools
because of the greater demands upon them; the variation of
hardening and tempering methods owing to the variety of steels
used, and particularly the use of "production" methods which
necessitates the design and manufacture of complicated tools,
jigs, and fixtures for the rapid duplication of any given machine.
The design of efficient and complete sets of such tools requires highly developed knowledge of machine methods and a thorough understanding of the machines for which the tools are designed.
The author of this work has had years of experience not only in teaching the subject but on the practical side as well and can give the reader a multitude of helpful suggestions for successfully carrying out the mechanical operations required. It is the hope of the publishers that this work will be found a worthy contribution to our standard technical literature.
