It is always more convenient to look up one’s own records than to wade through a lot of associated, but irrelevant material, especially as this may mean a trip to the reference library. Over a period of years, the contents of such notebooks grow to cover a wealth of vital information, and the time saved can be considerable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring his professional life, Tubal Cain filled three such books and, as a lifelong engineer, he is in a unique position to select (and add to) the material most useful to the amateur engineer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModel Engineer’s Handbook comprises a compilation of those tables, facts, procedures and data which the author himself found valuable in his model engineering activities and it provides a real mine of information to which you will return again and again. Not the least of its attributes is the use, where appropriate, of data and calculations in both Imperial and SI units, so that all generations of model engineers can feel at home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this third edition, all the existing data has been updated or re-arranged for greater clarity and much new matter has been added to provide an even more comprehensive book, indispensable to the expert and beginner alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eSI Units and Metrication; Workshop Calculations; Standard Tapers and Collets; Screw Threads; Workshop Practice; Metal Joining; Properties of Materials; Steam and the Steam Engine; Air and Gases; Bolier Work; Piston and Gland Seals; Electrical Memoranda; General Moel Engineering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTubal Cain was the pen name of engineer and craftsman Tom Walshaw, the writer of many best-selling home workshop and model engineering guides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst published by Argus Books in 1981;\u003cbr\u003eSecond revised edition 1986;\u003cbr\u003eThird revised edition published by Nexus Special Interests in 1996;\u003cbr\u003eSpecial Interest Model Books edition published in 2003\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e210 x 148 mm\u003cbr\u003e240 pages\u003cbr\u003eOver 200 tables and diagrams\u003cbr\u003ePaperback\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EduTech Toys and Hobbies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53451397333265,"sku":"MAR861344","price":316.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/2108\/6225\/files\/MODELENGINEER_SHANDBOOK.jpg?v=1776927736","url":"https:\/\/www.edutechtoysandhobbies.co.za\/products\/model-engineers-handbook-cain","provider":"EduTech Toys and Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
