Description
Excerpt from Advanced Metal-Work, Vol. 1 of 3: Lessons on the Speed-Lathe, Engine-Lathe, and Planing-Machine; For the Use of Technical Schools, Manual-Training Schools, and Amateurs; The Speed-Lathe
The lessons in lathe-work and planer-work here set forth represent pretty closely the course of instruction in this subject which an experience of thirteen years has developed in the College of the City of New York. The mechanical course in this college is a five years' course (including a preparatory or sub-freshman year), collegiate in character, like the other courses, and leading to the degree of Bachelor of Sciences. To the workshop and the laboratory is given an average of four hours a week throughout the five years. These lessons represent the work of the sophomore year, four hours a week, and the junior year, three hours a week, or, deducting holidays, about two hundred and thirty-eight hours in all.
