These dirt-cheap die books are even cheaper as a set! They're worth their weight in gold! These are the best books you'll ever own on making forming and stamping dies and making them work in production! Ever wonder what it'd be like to have a master die maker at your elbow to give you the right answers as you build that next die and then try to "tune it up" to it's first production run? How many "cut-and-tries" would that eliminate? How many hours of your time would that save? What is an hour of your time worth? This is the first of two books Jim wrote. What makes his two little red books so prized by those who design, build, run or troubleshoot dies or supervise or manage those who do is Jim's hands-on practical man-to-man instructions of what works and what doesn't. When you spend 46 years making dies you built work, you're bound to accumulate a wealth of good old solid how-to! Every bit of those 46 years of experience, knowledge and know-how Jim has crammed into his two books. Die Makers Text will take you from ground zero and teach you not only how to construct any forming or stamping die but how to troubleshoot it to get it to work like you planned it to work. Jim assumes you know little to nothing about building a die but after going through this book you'll probably know more than some of the more experienced die makers in your shop! You'll learn all about the individual die components, that a die is affixed to a "die set" which consists of the bottom shoe, top shoe with the shank, leader pins, bushings and if it's a precision die set it may have roller bearings, the difference between a commercial die set and a precision die set, shanks, dowel pins, cap screws and when to use them, proper clearances, advantages and disadvantages of different mounting methods, flat head cap screws and when to use them, stripper bolts, air hardening, water hardening and oil hardening tool steels and what to look out for, headed punches, ball locks, form punches, emboss punches, blade punches, trim punches, pilot punches, extrusion punches, and strippers of all types, solid, spring loaded, bridge strippers, positive strippers, and knockout strippers. You'll learn about die sections, trim sections, slug relief, die buttons, back relief, die life and why some wear way too fast, the proper form relief, taper relief, composite sections, scrap cutters, locators, and more! You'll learn about stop blocks, shims and how to make them and when and where to use them and much more!

You'll learn the basic operation of: trim dies, draw dies, wipe dies, problems and what to do. You'll learn about press function, using wobble plates, keys, locators, contour trimming, corner trims, strippers and much, much more. You get instruction on die troubleshooting and what to do about: broken punches, slugged hole, punch misalignment, stripper binding punch, shank bottomed in stripper, mislocated part, bell-mouthed hole, punch pulled, binding during stripping, broken section, slugged section, improper slug relief, hole undersized or oversized, die sheared, part hit off location, double hits in form station, improper set-up, crooked dowel pins, section-punch cocked, bent stripper and much more. You'll learn how to determine when a die should be sharpened, how to restore the die section back to its original height after sharpening, cutting steel with form die sections, form section with form incorporated on side of cutting edge, emboss or shallow form, extrusions, lifters with springs, using lance form combination section, contour trimming, sharpening punches, scrap cutters, positive scrap cutters, chisel cutters, and avalanches. You'll learn how to stop the part from slipping during forming, how to stop material bulge, how to control a wipe radius, about problems caused by improper clearances, shallow draw-emboss problems, and thinning, material, broken springs, trapped air, galling, lubrication for aluminum, brass and copper, steel, galvanized steel and aluminized steel. You'll learn how to solve fracture problems, material wrinkle problems, adjust the pad pressure, holding radii, working with bad material, stripper sticking, and much, much more. You'll learn why you get thin spots in the material when forming and how to control it, how to provide the proper relief on form punches, clearances, angle shimming, the effects of press speed, part distortion, double forming, bowed sections, rehitting part after forming, controlling burrs, malformation, getting the right height for weld projections, holes pulling, insufficient lubrication, stripper clearance, pilots off progression, material pulling or moving, the effects of improper die clearance, grippers, pulling slugs, tapered die clearance, determining when the die is dull and should be sharpened, excessive lubrication, inner flanges and more. Then you'll learn proper die set-up, cleaning the press bolster and ram, pre-ram adjustment, ram setting, positioning the die, die clamping, final ram setting, and troubleshooting problems sometimes encountered, draw die setting, pin installation, placing die into position, progressive dies, die alignment, press-die alignment, bolster-die alignment, feed to press alignment, straightener alignment, reel alignment, feed settings, restraining forces, resistant forces, slippage, irregular feeds, straighteners, reels, non-powered reels, reel brakes, coil loading on the reel, coil threading, feed adjustment, die in-press changeover, ball lock punch change, punch size change, base-mounted punch changeover, cam punch changeovers, and much much more. 4 3/4" X 7 1/4" 493 pages Hardcover profusely illustrated. What's it worth to put an additional 46 years of die making and troubleshooting experience in your head before you build that next die? The raw steel stock for that die will probably cost more than this book. This could save you many times its cost on making and troubleshooting your next die. How many dies do you have on the shelf that you just gave up on? How many dies do you have that just never ran quite right? That dulled too quickly, jammed or stuck? That made parts that were not quite right? Every die shop has a few. This is the second of two books Jim wrote. The first, Die Makers Text, will teach you how to make forming and stamping dies from the ground up, from knowing nothing about making dies, to building your first stamping or forming die and making it run in production. Think of this second book as Advanced Die Making and Troubleshooting. The wire EDM portion covers the use of a wire EDM machine from design to completed die. It covers the dos and don'ts in design and wire cutting of die sections. Jim has covered a punch press in order to familiarize you with how presses work and the potential dangers that can result in die damages. The many formulas in this book are available in many different places. Jim has made all of them available in one place. There are many solutions to common die problems in design and development. The cheapest and most efficient way to learn is by reading and using the solutions. The most expensive way is to develop and learn the hard way, by trial and expensive error, by only your own experience. The use of the Wire EDM machine has revolutionized the tool and die trade. Parts can now be easily made that before weren't even possible. You'll learn about wire burning, fundamentals for cutting sections, slug relief, what cutting clearances to use, how to avoid the "sudden death" of a die from that first bad stroke, the effects of land and relief, taper, suggested starting conditions, the start hole, shape dimensioning, burning the shape, slug removal, metal preparation, heat treat, flushing, roughing steel and much more plus you get instruction on designing for wire and wire machine maintenance. You'll learn how to make sections, the rules of thumb, roughing out steel, preparation, grinding, strippers, springs vs drop in nitrogen, pilots, fringe notches, tooling, material and quality cost related to dimensioning and tolerancing parts, and more. You'll learn all about the press, it's components, their basic function and how they operate, he bolster, ram, gibbs, frame, crown, bed, uprights, drive system, connecting rods, ram adjustment, counter balance, press speed, tonnage rating at position on stroke, ram parallelism check and set. You get instruction on pierce punch entry, punch wear, die clearances, material thickness, punch material, punch shearing, lubrication, ground shear, multi-shut height, recommended punch entry for various types of material and thicknesses, curls and 180 degree bends and more. You'll learn how to form a 90 degree angle, about variables, about what material conditions affect angles, straight wipe no set, wipe with set edge, wipe with rocker, cam at bottom of stroke, ready benders, tilt pad on angle, cam re-strike, air bend, crimping, crimping two parts together, pinch trim, piloting to control progression, draw depth, controlling width of a formed channel, how to hold holes on the side of the part concentric, top of bend to center line of holes, flange height control, holes pierced in formed areas, how to plan for open angles, relation of holes to extrusions and countersinks, designing for spring back on angles, forming short radius forms, forming large extrusions, forming bosses with tapered sides, de-burring by coining, the effect of progressive die lifters on progression control, extrusion height vs diameter, and much, much more! 4 3/4" X 7 1/4" Hardcover 319 pages profusely illustrated.
