    This book sounds interesting.  What scale of work does it address? 
    Would the techniques be applicable for larger holloware or sheet
    steel work in a larger press?  My husband has a large press that he
    uses for making damascus steel and hammers.  I know I could make
    dies, with stops, and adapt the press to my own uses (for chased
    wallpieces, perhaps holloware) but I need some examples and
    guidelines to start with. 

    Are there any other books you would suggest, preferably something
    that I don't need to be an engineer to understand.
