I made the wooden TS back in 1970, i think one sheet of 3/4" plywood. I bought the tilting arbor unit from ATM tools for $29 a 1/2hp motor for $18. i used it a lot till i could afford better. The only thing wrong was it being under powered with the 1/2hp motor. Then i went hog wilded and bought an 8" craftsman TS for $150. Those were the days. Carl

I hope Popular Mechanics has let this book slip into the public domain. If not this thread is a major violation of copyright law.
 
The copyright can be extended for many, many years. In the publishing industry, the general rule of thumb is to not reprint anything less than 100 years old unless you get permission or know the publisher has let it go into public domain. There are lots of rules about how a publisher can keep the copyright, so it may not be obvious.

I was just warning everyone that they may be playing with fire. Very expensive fire.
 
Hey, my dad built that lathe. I still have bits and pieces of it somewhere.
