==Bibliography== * {{Holland1989}} ''A history most specifically of Burgmaster, which specialized in turret drills; but in telling Burgmaster's story, and that of its acquirer Houdaille, Holland provides a history of the machine tool industry in general between World War II and the 1980s that ranks with Noble's coverage of the same era (Noble 1984) as a seminal history. Later republished under the title ''From Industry to Alchemy: Burgmaster, a Machine Tool Company''.

''The Moore family firm, the Moore Special Tool Company, independently invented the [[jig borer]] (contemporaneously with its Swiss invention), and Moore's monograph is a seminal classic of the principles of machine tool design and construction that yield the highest possible [[accuracy and precision]] in machine tools (second only to that of [[metrology|metrological]] machines).
