Books - Disclaimer

The books about machining offered through LatheCity have been written carefully and all projects and procedures have been tested thoroughly. However, as always, the author and publisher cannot guarantee that the procedures are perfect and without any mistakes. Neither LatheCity nor its owner shall be liable for damage arising herefrom. In addition, it is impossible to predict and prevent all the possible problems someone may possibly run into when working with a lathe or milling machine. Using a motor tool can be dangerous and the proper use is the responsibility of the one who is using the tool. If you are not perfectly comfortable with working with motor tools, then don’t do it! In this case, take a metal working class rather than following a do-it-yourself outline. Or, find a different hobby. The author cannot jump in if you make a mistake which results in harming yourself or damaging the tools you use. Don’t use half broken or damaged tools, perhaps purchased for cheap at a 2nd hand store or who knows where. This would be overwhelming to handle in the beginning. Thoughtful work will be your responsibility. The author makes no representations or warranties with respect to the accuracy or completeness of the contents.
The author is not a professional machinist or engineer. In fact, the author holds a PhD in physics and teaches physical chemistry at a college.
