Hey,
I recently started machining as a hobby and I got really interested in machine design and machine building from practical perspective.
I’m not necessarily looking to build any machines at the moment, but I feel that knowing how machines are built an why are they built in a certain way would make my machining knowledge much broader and it might make it much easier to do any machine maintenance when needed. And it also seems very interesting.
I know about the Gingery series, but from what I understand his designs are aimed at a low cost aluminum machines and I’m looking more at a design used in professional machines. It doesn’t have to be anything recent, though, old designs are also welcomed.
