I'm looking for some beginner books on plastic forming of metals on presses. Both for hot metals as in forging and cold.
I found some academic style books used in my country, but they're written for someone who has sat through a university course on the subject and are full of equations and have none of the basics.
So I though to ask here. I read some really good old books on milling, lathe operations, surface grinding, metrology etc. What about (press) forging and pressing? How can an amateur learn the basics?
