David P. Best - Selected Resources for Machinists

[vtcnc]

Please take a minute to welcome member @davidpbest - but now as a Commercial member! David is long time member of Hobby Machinist. Recently he has written a book titled: Introduction to Indexable Tooling for the Metal Lathe: A User Guide. I personally have purchased the book and have found it very useful when going through the dizzying process of selecting insert tooling in my little hobby shop.

Please welcome David as our newest sponsor of the forum!

Not true. You must have been looking at the first (now collectors) edition which as been retired and only available as used when someone lists it for sale.

Here is the link to the current edition. Thanks for your support.
