Here is the first book to identify American builders of planers, shapers and slotters, who operated throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries. Written in the style of the author's previous groundbreaking books on the American machine tool industry, this volume provides the reader with invaluable information on over 300 makers. Some are very well known, but many have previously gone virtually unrecognized by researchers. More than 1000 illustrations, taken from original catalogs and contemporary periodicals, show how these machines developed: starting out in the early 1800s as crude, hand-built copies of English machines and becoming, over the course of a century, monster machines weighing nearly one million pounds, unmatched elsewhere in the world. Numerous machine accessories, such as chucks, dividing heads, milling attachments and keyseating attachments, among others, are identified and illustrated. In addition, the book includes a glossary of terms used in describing the various types of planers, shapers and slotters, and provides illustrations that help identify the individual parts of the machines.

Excerpt from Planing and Milling: A Treatise on the Use of Planers, Shapers, Slotters, and Various Types of Horizontal and Vertical Milling Machines and Their Attachments This book deals with the practical problems connected with the adjustment and use of planets, shapers, slotters and milling machines of standard and special designs. Each subject is treated from the standpoint of the man in the shop, and a special efiort has been made to present needed information per taining to problems which the practical man often finds dificult to solve. Many operations from actual practice are illustrated and described to show the adaptability of different machines for certain classes of work, and the relation between various designs and types. Examples and operations have been selected that would not only show how a specific result is obtained, but illustrate fundamental principles and serve as a general guide. Descriptions of methods involving mathematical calculations contain the necessary rules or formulas and are accompanied by examples illustrating the problems which arise in actual practice.
