It is advertised in the back of Home Shop Machinist at $92.50 per copy. I got mine at $62.50, I think, and I'm not selling mine!

In the latest issue (November/December 2003) of "The Home Shop Machinist" an advertiser has the book for $92.95 plus $6.75 postage and handling. The author is Edward F. Connelly. It also says mention the ad or send a copy of the ad with order and get free shipping. Machine Tool Publications, 935 Holley Avenue, St Paul Park, MN 55071 (651) 458-1540 (ask for Dan, it says).

The value of this book is severalfold. Chiefly, it is *the* reference on how to use the art of scraping to restore surfaces on machine tools. This is good to know and interesting to read about, but essentially useless to anyone like me who isn't going to develop years to become a machine scraper. However, what I find the most useful area of this book is its detailed setups as to how to test a lathe or mill. How do you know if a lathe is within spec? You run the tests in "Machine Tool Reconditioning". The setups run from basic and simple to exotic (troughs of water and such).
I recommend checking this book out of your library. I used to do that. After about the fifth time I checked it out, I decided to own it. - GWE

I had my local library get a copy for me via inter-library loan. I then photocopied the more interesting parts for personal use.

Yahoo groups says it's about scraping alone, so don't be disappointed if it's not what you expect.
It's $92 brand new from Powells. <http://www.powells.com/search/DTSearch/search?kw=Machine+Tool+Reconditioning&pokey=skeptopotamus&Search.xC&Search.y >
