The watchmakers' lathe, its use and abuse; a story of the lathe in its various forms, past and present, its construction and proper uses

Goodrich, Ward L. [from old catalog] · 1903 · Chicago, Hazlitt & Walker · 179 pictures

A trade manual on the watchmaker's lathe by Ward L. Goodrich, published in Chicago by Hazlitt & Walker in 1903 for working watch repairers and machinists. The 179 wood-engraved figures show headstocks, tailstocks, index plates, chucks, collets and bench attachments in three-quarter view, built from dense parallel hatching that reads as polished metal; useful as precise mechanical silhouettes and line-shading patterns.
