Surnmary. Tlie above classification of machinery iniplit besulxliviiled ami extended indefinitely, and on the broad basis onwhich it is given it doubtless does not cover tlie entire field. Asan illustration, however, not only of types of machinery, but ofmethods of design and study, it is hoped that it may be of assist-ance in giving a start to the student of machine design, in what-ever class his interests may happen to lie. It is the general principles of the art which it is important tomaster. It is not the designing of a locomotive, or a stationarysteam engine, or a crane, or an engine latlu^, or a rolling mill,wiiich should be sought to be learned, but the designing of amj-fliiiiij that may confront us. Specializing is sure to come to tin;designer in the course of his experience, and when it does he merelyfits to the particular specialty the princi[)l(s he knows for all, andpractically develops them along that individual MACHINE DESIGN. Introduction. In Part I is illustrated a definite and systematic methodof attacking the design of a machine as a whole. In Part II the same plan isfollowed with regard to the detail of its component parts, the machine elements which are chosen as illustrations of the method, being the simplest andmost familiar forms in common use. As before, the student must strive to grasp and absorb the method of designrather than any specific and established form of a machine part. Part II isnot a compendium of design, does not attempt to be complete or exhaustive inany of its chapters, but is and simplified in order to lead thestudent into systematic mechanical thinking and logical and definite chapter is intended to stimulate to further and more
