Mechanical Engineers! I need Fit/Sizing Charts

So I have a large drafting assignment to do, and all the fits need to be calculated and labeled, but the
charts in my textbook are WOEFULLY incomplete. It looks like they're there more for example purpose than actual use. D:
So, where online can I find both Metric (H11/c7 etc) and Imperial (Rn/Fl) etc?

    You need this

    I haven't found anything online that is as remotely complete and I'm sure a college engineering library will have multiple copies

    Yeah, my instructor calls it the Machinist's bible. While I plan on getting one eventually,
    I'm really looking for a free option at the moment. I'll check out the library today.

    The problem with free online stuff is that it's most likely taken from sources like your textbooks which are less than accurate, as you've discovered

    Unfortunately, you'll have to pay for either a reference manual or the actual standards and those are way the hell more expensive than just the Machinery's Handbook

    I'd look at half.com and used textbook websites because sometimes you can find them on the cheap.

    Your university library should have a copy. I'm not a MechE major anymore but it's still the most useful book I ever purchased.
