Tonight, I'm collecting my lathe (Warco WMT300). I need to source a book or
two to help me sort out the basics, preferably reasonably modern so I can
read about indexed tools and the types available. I'm interested in the
different types of steel available: also, boring and screw cutting. I'm not
completely new to turning - I did 'O' level metalwork in a boys secondary
modern school in 1966 . I haven't done anything beyond very basic turning of
things like motorcycle wheel spacers since then (I had access to a small
lathe when I was still working).
All suggestions gratefully received.
