THE DRILL PRESS BY DAVID J. GINGERY HOW TO

Most textbooks are aimed at the beginner in the machining trade and cover basic work practice admirably. вЂњвЂ¦James Harvey has written an excellent book that fills a void in current metalworking instructional books. Once you have a foundry to cast the parts and a lathe to machine them you can tackle more exotic projects.Д¬LICK HERE TO GET BOOK Book Machine Shop Trade Secrets Description/Summary: A truly practical machine capable of precision work.

Adjustable gibs in sliding members and adjustable sleeve bearings in the headstock. Adjustable tailstock with set-over for taper turning. include a 7' swing over the bed and 12' between centers. Illustrated with photos and drawings to show you all you need to know about patterns, molding, casting and finishing the parts. Then additional castings, common hardware items and improvised equipment will add the headstock, tailstock, carriage and all the remaining parts to complete the lathe. Using castings from your charcoal foundry (see Book 1 in the series: The Charcoal Foundry by David Gingery) and simple hand methods (no machine tools needed!) you can build a sturdy and accurate bed for a metal lathe.

And you will have the capability to cast replacement parts, or even make copies of those hard to find items. Before you know it, you will be creating plastic products of your own design. Suppliers are also identified and you will also receive a basic introduction to plastic injection molding in general.

Here in this booklet you will receive detailed step by step instructions along with photos and drawings showing how to build your very own injection molding attachment for a drill press. Construction is simple and straight forward, but it will require basic metal working knowledge and the ability to operate a metal lathe and a drill press along with other hand and power tools associated with metal working and machine work in general. The force required to inject the plastic is provided by the feed mechanism of a drill press. The temperature of the barrel is accurately controlled by a digital temperature controller and thermocouple arrangement. In operation, plastic is melted in the injection barrel of the machine by two 1/4 inch diameter x 2-1/2 inch long cartridge heaters. The unit itself measures approximately 12 inches long x 1-3/4 inch diameter at its widest point and weighs just 3 pounds.

Thus, we refer to it as an injection molding attachment for a drill press. (.59 ounce to be exact) This amazingly compact machine is designed to be used with a floor model style drill press having a minimum spindle travel of 3 inches. But what if you are an experimenter, inventor or hobbyist and you just want a few parts made? We have attempted to answer that question for you by providing these plans for a small hobby size injection molding machine capable of molding slightly more than 1/2 ounce of plastic.
