Tumppi-Reamer making, and some dimesion related questions.
Hello everyone
Im thinking to do some reamers, mainly by quide which Doble Troble has made.
Equipment available are basic homeshop machinery, lathe, mill, indexing stuff etc..
Any book recommends or general tips?
I have some pfd's from C.I.P and wondering if it also possibel to use these dimensions to mill reamers?
Example:

A good book for a lot of gunsmithing info is James Howes "Modern Gunsmith". I see it is also on a CD now, which is better than nothing but seems to be perpetually on EBAY. Also, see if your local library can get it.
P.S. Welcome to the forums! I hope you have an enjoyable time here, and learn a lot to boot!
