pjh66 Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 This handy little book I have found to be very useful. It may not be a blacksmith book but I think it is a lot of help to anyone working with steel. In its is imformation for threads, hole fits, harderning & tempering steel, properties for different types of steel. EMI Supply : Engineers Black Book - USA Edition - The engineers quick reference manual [EBB-USA] - $29.99 This is a link for some more imformation. Imformation in it is easy to find.

Warrigal Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Dads Dad had a light engineering shop. I was talking about my forge and that I had seen the "little black book" in a tool shop but the price was a bit steep ( for me at the moment at least) Dad went inside a came back with Pops Engineers hand book Title page with the date is gone but he had covered the book with brown paper and added his name and class date 1912! Woo hoo. Carl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragons lair Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 The machinery handbook is also great. I have 2 from the 30s-40s from my dad. Big one is about 2000 pages. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
