    • A brilliant book.

      For anyone contemplating buying a modern Chinese mini lathe, this is the book to buy. Written by someone who owns, uses and modifies one, and a current contributor to UK machine forums, this book is a beautifully written, well illustrated, totally up to date work which shouldn't be missed. Highly recommended.

    • Excellent introduction to mini-lathes

      A comprehensive guide to owning and using a mini-lathe, well-written with good photographs to reinforce the text. It would be very helpful to a new lathe user.
