Note or no note, I’m just happy that someone can use that old book in a productive fashion.

Hopefully your generous gift to Rough and Tumble will be acknowledged shortly.

DAB was kind enough to offer a pristine 5th edition of the Machinery Handbook which i was able to handoff for him to the lineshaft machine shop at Rough and Tumble. It's a 1915 copyright and a 1918 (1919?) printing and in excellent shape.

A lot of the thread info was dropped in the later printings when they standardized thread sizes in 1920. It is a GREAT reference for the older machines.
