About this book

Connelly describes some processes used by machinist craftsmen to restore accurate working surfaces to metal surfaces of machine tools. Hand scraping is a skilled process of using a hand tool to remove (often minute) bits of metal to flatten surfaces that were often originally prepared by a large machine.
