Notes: Includes bibliographical references.

First sentence: Save Thousands of Dollars by Repairing Bent Steel Metal-working plants must live with the fact that employees make mistakes. These blunders regularly result in scrapped work or costly repairs. Flame Straightening Technology contains over 35 simple step-by-step procedures to salvage spoilt steel components. Hot shot techniques with a welder's heating torch are clearly illustrated for bending or straightening: structural shapes, distorted weldments, precision machined components, shafts, pipes, large cylindrical objects, thick heavy steel plates, castings, overlay distortion, and much, much more.

Shows you where to apply the flame and for how long. No theory. All practical illustrated examples. Hot shot techniques with a welders heating torch are clearly illustrated for bending or straightening structural shapes,distorted weldments ,precision machined components ,shafts,pipes,large cylindrical objects,thick heavy steel plates,castings,overlay distortion and much more.
