Excerpt from Shop and Foundry Management For the most part this volume consists of articles written for The Iron Age, Mr. Deans purpose being to present everyday shop and foundry methods that have resulted in lower cost and greater output. As superintendent of the Dean Brothers Steam Pump Works, Indianapolis, Ind., in the past thirteen years, the author has constantly aimed at four things: Reduction in cost of production; increase in plant capacity through greater efficiency; quick deliveries, and a perfect product. Mr. Dean, who is nephew of the proprietors, was put in charge of the Indianapolis plant thirteen years ago at the age of 25. The product is pumps ranging from 24 to 50, 000 pounds, some of them designed by the author, who also designed and built a number of special machines to turn out the work. Among these is a 6-foot boring and milling machine having a 48-inch milling cutter head. Mr. Dean worked in every department of the Indianapolis plant. He had a common school and high school education. Working in the shop in vacations from an early age, before he was out of school he had learned the machinists trade. At eighteen he quit school and went to work in the foundry, learning this trade. He was specially instructed in all branches of operation, with the idea of eventually taking charge.

Excerpt from Shop and Foundry Practice, Vol. 1 A surface may be defined as the outline Of a solid; it has the shape Of a solid, but is without thickness. For example, when a pattern lies in its mold, that part Of the pattern that comes in contact with the sand is called the surface of the pattern. Again, as we all know, a soap bubble is very thin; it has air inside Of it and its outside is also in contact with air; that part touched by the air inside is called the inside surface, and the part touched by the air outside is called the outside surface. Now, if the thickness of the bubble could be diminished indefinitely until there was absolutely no thickness at all, there would of course be no bubble, but we could imagine the outline or form Of the bubble as still remaining, and this outline or form would be the surface.

Excerpt from Maximum Production in Machine-Shop and Foundry The material on which the present book is based was most of it contained in three series of articles published originally in The Engineering Magazine at various times from October, 1908, to May, 1911. It was all written in the very atniosphere of the busy manufacturing plant and under the influence of daily contact with the problems and methods dis cussed. Everything in it represents some phase or period of the author's personal experience. As here gathered in volume form, however, the material is all resurveyed, rearranged, largely recast, from the view point of a larger experience and a maturer study of the mechanical industries and more advanced prin ciples and methods of management. The result is a logical, well-proportioned and well-balanced de velopment of the subject from beginning to end, by which the relations of all its elements will be much more clearly understood. The discussion will be followed again with new and increased interest and reward, even by those who read the articles as they appeared in sequence in The Engineering Maga zlne.

Excerpt from The Foundry, Vol. 26: March, 1905 This illuminated the scene around the cu pola, the more remote corners of the shop being lighted by bits of waste burning in shallow tins of oil. The roof of this shop was propped up by pieces of old rails from a convenient railroad and in the smoke, steam and gloom of casting time, these rails were invisible and collisions not unfrequently occurred. It was one of these collisions in which I figured, together with a bull ladle of iron. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Foundry Work, Vol. 2: Instruction Paper The loam molder requires the greatest all-around skill in the whole range of foundry work. He must know all the tricks of core room and dry sand shop, and most of those in green sand. Added to all this he must have a practical working knowledge of the principles of drawing and must possess to a large degree the foresight of the designer. In order to save time and lumber in the pattern shop, only a set of sweeps are provided if the mold is simple, and these with blue prints of the piece wanted, is all the molder has to work from. In intricate work, such as a modern Corliss cylinder, a skeleton pattern carrying the steam chests, etc., in accurate position is made. And in some very crooked work a pattern is furnished complete. As a rule, how ever, the loam molder must rely upon his own skill and ingenuity for the best method of constructing each detail of the work. Rigging. The equipment for the loam floor varies in different shops. In Fig. 93 is shown the essential features of an equipment for sweeping up circular forms.
