I'm going to school for gunsmithing in trinidad soon but I feel like I'm going to miss some key things in lectures. I'm European (Belgium) and used to get confused sometimes when people asked me for certain tools. I've gotten a lot better tinkering on cars with my wife's cousin but know next to nothing about machining in English. I've caught a few terms here and there on YouTube but not too much. I've got two books on gunsmithing that are supposed to be staples. I've misplaced them getting ready for the move so I can't give you the title. Something about making sure something comes with makes it dissappear half the time.
Long question short. Is there something every machinist should read? Bridgeport for dummies perhaps? I did some lathing and milling in school 20 years ago and can't remember 99% of it and the class was in Flemish.
If anyone knows a good book on designing your own firearms, that would be neat as well. Little bit of gunsmithing with some physics and material sciences as well.
