Projectile manufacturing drawings 1917

They are from "Manufacture Of Artillery Ammunition" a 1917 document which shows all of the stages of projectile production made by American and Canadian ordnance manufacturers for overseas clients (war aid)

Excellent drawings, thanks for super posting, dont think I'll try anything bigger than 3in on my lathe, strained the last one and me doing a 4.7in band.
