About this book

Screw-Thread Cutting by the Master-Screw Method since 1480, by Edwin A. Battison, discusses early screw-thread cutting machines, including a screw-cutting lathe known only in pictures and drawings. The text describes lathes of one design as popular for a very long time with instrument makers and opticians who had little need to cut screws of great length.

The discussion connects industrial demands for greater versatility in the production of engineering elements with the evolution of more complex machines tending to eclipse threaded spindle lathes. The account places the appearance of Maudslay's lathe of 1797-1800 at a time when industry was receptive to rapid innovation.
