Working with brass - book recommendation
Hi all,
I am a the planning stage of a project which will require the fabrication of several brass parts. I've worked lots with steel, and a little with aluminium, but brass is new territory for me. Can anyone recommend a good book on working with brass (cutting, finishing, lacquering etc)? TIA -- Grunff |
