when I use it, by the time I find the information I'm looking for I forget why I needed it and the time I allotted for the project has been used up reading the book. my wife calls it machinest porn!!
I got my first Machinist Handbook in a very similar way...given as a gift from a grumpy old guy with a hand written "For those times when you aren't schooling me and you might not actually have the answer."
MY FIRST ONE WAS HANDED DOWN FROM MY GRANDFATHER TO MY FATHER TO ME .
IT's A SEVENTH EDITION FROM 1929 . SOMEONE NAMED FLOYD TILTON HAD IT BEFORE GRAMPS .
Today I used my new issue chip credit card. Of course the procedure to use these is very different from the mag-swipe technology. As a creature of habit I forgot to remove the card & drove off, Calling the bank later relieved my worst fear. A following patron retrieved the card & took the time to return it to the bank drop box. Not all of society is lost.
