This authoritative volume gathers the author’s experience from years on the floor into a practical guide for improving efficiency, control, and profitability in metal manufacturing.

The book treats the two twin centers of production—machine shop and foundry—as closely linked. It explains how to design simple, useful accounting and organizational systems that actually drive better decisions, reduce waste, and raise output.
