How to Cut Make Gear Teeth Mill Rack, Spur, Bevel, Helical Worm Manual Book 1041

August 5, 2026 //  Leave a Comment

Manual Description:Number of Pages: 59, printed 5.5″ x 8.5″ This is a reproduction, not a photocopy, of an original Cincinnati Cutting Gear Teeth on a Milling Machine book. This book provides information on the formulas, cutter selection and set up to for milling rack teeth, spur gear teeth, bevel gear teeth, helical gear teeth, worms, and worm wheels. Please see pictures of index below. This is one of my favorite books on cutting gears. It is simple and gets right to the point. It gives you critical information in the right areas so you don’t have to hunt and peck through the text. For rack gears it describes the slide rule and continued division method. When milling spur gears it provides the formula, and describes examples on how to cut the teeth. It shows how to set up a bevel gear on a dividing head, and describes which operations should be performed first with the formulas on how to calculate them. It provides information about how to calculate the angle of row and determining the set-over. There is a lot more information on helical gears, and it covers both helical gears for parallel shafts and helical gears for shafts at right angles. Finally for worm gears, it explains how to gash and hob the worm teeth, and how to mill the worms. In the back is a list of formulas and calculations for the different types gears as well as tables for indexing plates used on dividing heads. If you are interested in milling gears, this is one of the best books I’ve seen on providing information that gets right to the point. Overview I have collected this information for many years and have found the information they contain to be priceless in using and setting up the machines properly. I believe this manual will be a valuable resource of knowledge that will provide a lot of helpful information that is often hard to find. My manuals are not photocopies.

HENDEY OLD Metal Lathe Operator’s Owner’s Hand Book Manual 0360

August 5, 2026 //  Leave a Comment

Manual Description:Number of Pages: 68 This is a reproduction of an original Hendey Operator’s Hand Book for Lathes Manual. I believe it is the first edition of this manual. I have the fourth edition of this manual in my store as well. There are no dates on this manual, but it does cover many of the cone head lathes and some of the earlier eight speed geared head lathes. I feel that the hand book was printed some where around the 1920’s. The picture below shows the original size and condition of this manual. I found the larger size to be extremely helpful when viewing the threading and gear charts. It was unbelievable the difference it made to have the manual cleaned up and enlarged to 8.5″x 11″. I know you will enjoy it. This is the cone head lathe covered in this manual. This is the first 8 speed gear head that Hendey produced for the 12″ to 20″ lathes. Contents:The first chapter (pages 1-12) cover the specifications of the lathe from the cone head to the geared head. Chapter 2 (pages 13-41) covers changing the gear box with threading standard, metric and english lead screws as well as cutting charts. Chapter 3 (pages 42-68) covers many of the unusual attachments for these lathes. It also includes formulas for the attachments. Pictures:Inside view of the Original compared to the Reproduction Overview:I have collected this information for many years and have found the information they contain to be priceless in using and setting up the machines properly. I believe this manual will be a valuable resource of knowledge that will provide a lot of helpful information that is often hard to find. My manuals are not photocopies.
