Excerpt from Machinists' and Draftsmen's Handbook
It is the author's hope and desire that this book, which is the outcome of years of study, work and observation, may be a help to the class of people to which he himself has the honor to belong, — the Working mechanics of the world. This is not intended solely as a reference book, but it may also be studied advantageously by the ambitious young engineer and machinist; and, therefore, as far as believed practical within the scope of the work, the fundamental principles upon which the rules and formulas rest are given and explained. The use of abstruse theories and complicated formulas is avoided; as it is thought preferable to sacrifice scientific hair splitting and be satisfied with rules and formulas which will give intelligent-approximations within practical limits, rather than to go into intricate and complicated formulas which can hardly be handled except by mathematical and mechanical experts.
