Review: A very useful book. - I know various reviewers have criticised this book as I read the reviews before ordering and did wonder what I would be getting. I find it to be a very useful book and is refreshing the parts of my memory that are very dim now in the past. It is making me take a very good look at what additional tooling I am going to be ordering for my new mill and what I feel I am tempted to make. Harold Hall's writing style might not be to everybody's taste, but it is a book to be read a number of times. He packs a lot of good information in it. He also has an excellent website with plenty more projects for mill and lathe and you will find more photos of considerable better quality, that can be zoomed as well. For those that have a difficulty understanding the two different milling directions there is some very clear help on YouTube, (Tom's techniques comes to mind and Tubal Cain, Mr Pete has loads of info on milling). I find this book along with other in the series give me a lot of help, which is then supplemented by YouTube. A point that should be noted is that Mr Hall clearly aims his books at those of us who don't have vast machine tool budgets and his own machine is in fact not so sophisticated as many now buy from the modestly priced Chinese imports for the model engineer. Much as many of us would love a Bridgeport like many US home workshop owners have on YouTube, it is just not possible for most of us. At this stage I must say that I have not yet started any of the projects as I am waiting for my mill to be delivered, but I am certainly going to be doing some to build up my tooling.

Clear explanations are given with good quality photos to illustrate various techniques & correct mounting of workpieces. By the end of the course I would hope to have a sound grasp of milling. If not, it will be down to me not the book. ## Frequently Bought Together - Milling: A Complete Course (Workshop Practice) - Lathework: A Complete Course (Workshop Practice) - The Milling Machine for Home Machinists (Fox Chapel Publishing) Over 150 Color Photos & Diagrams; Learn How to Successfully Choose, Install, & Operate a Milling Machine in Your Home Workshop --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/48476957-milling-a-complete-course-workshop-practice](https://www.desertcart.at/products/48476957-milling-a-complete-course-workshop-practice) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
