Hi all,
A friend of mine just gave me a copy of "Forty Power Tools You Can Make" which was taken from a publication entitled "Popular mechanics" in around 1941.
Health and Safety does not seem to be a big issue back then.
I have scanned the first four pages detailing how to make a homemade wood lathe and attached below. I have scanned the whole book and copyright depending I'll upload it power tool by power tool in this thread.
Enjoy.
p.s. index also included below.
