viduals who have an understanding of metal-
working. We realize there are numerous kinds of
cutters and specialized techniques used to turn
metals. To list all of the techniques necessary to
operate a metal lathe correctly for specific appli-
cations would require many volumes. Additional
information sources are necessary to realize the
full potential of this machine. Trade journals, met-
alworking magazines, and your local library are
good places to start.

tor or others in the area is likely.
