This practical, hands-on guide will assist anyone who wants to cut gears inexpensively on a lathe or milling machine. It teaches the fundamentals needed to design gears and gear trains using simple, non-technical language paired with helpful diagrams, charts, illustrations, and photography. With 12 insightful chapters on tooth forms and sizes, rack and pinion gears, bevel wheels, worm gears, dividing heads, and so much more, this comprehensive manual takes complicated concepts and makes them approachable and easy for anyone who simply enjoys model-making!

Explanations and reasons for all conventional types of gears are clearly set out in this book together with useful tables and machinery techniques to form an invaluable reference work for anyone dealing with machinery.

Model engineers and many small workshops do not need, or have access to, much of the sophisticated measuring equipment used in industry. Accurate marking out and measurement by more basic means at all stages of work are comprehensively described by an expert engineer.
