Ive got a first addition copy of Aircraft Welding by L.S. Elzea

Book is in pretty darned good condition, no noticible tears, no stains
the cover and its gold (gilt) printing is in excellent shape. Id rate
it, if it were a gun..about 98%

Book is filled with text and photographs of the actual how to do..of
welding aircraft frames and similar assemblies together. And how to
design and layout such assemblies. I believe this was printed for the
war effort as a master welding guide in ....the Introduction is from
Chris Beech, and the next page is a request from the Boeing company
for such a book in the war effort.

Anyone have any interest in this? Ill give you a 3 day inspection if
you would like.


I also have 21+ absolutely MINT volumes of a matched series of books
on Aircraft mechanics, pneudraulics, drafting, Aerodymanics and Flight
etc etc by the " International Library, International Textbook
Company, Scranton PA

According to Wiki...they were correspondence course books.

The books in The International Library of Technology were published by
I.T.C. These books were bound volumes of the course materials for the
more than 240 courses offered. These books were used and made
available in at least 184 Colleges (Including The U.S. Military
Academy at West Point and Cornell University) and at least 649 Public
Libraries.[4]

Absolutely mint..brand new condition. From my private collection.

One bleeding-heart type asked me in a recent interview if I did not
agree that "violence begets violence." I told him that it is my
earnest endeavor to see that it does. I would like very much to ensure
- and in some cases I have - that any man who offers violence to his
fellow citizen begets a whole lot more in return than he can enjoy.

Along these same lines (but probably not as specialized as the above)
the FAA has a bunch of free publications generally related to methods
techniques, materials & practices... lots of great material buried in
here. Most (if not all) in pdf format.

http://www.faa.gov/regulations_polic...uals/aircraft/

http://www.faa.gov/regulations_polic...ory_circulars/

Far as advisory circulars (ACs) go, I suspect the most interest here
might be in parts 43 (AC43.13-2B is a really good one), and part 65
(AC65-12A & AC65-15A in particular), but be sure to look through them
all!

I've been having issues 'deep linking' to pages on the FAA's site... if
you have issues, go to:

http://www.faa.gov/

And do searches on both 'aircraft handbooks & manuals' and 'advisory
circulars', both sans quotes.

Also, NASA has some great stuff as well. This one on wiring, soldering,
crimping, cable lacing and related is excellent!

http://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/codeq/doctree/87394.pdf

NASA has much more, but I don't know where it all is off the top of my
head... shouldn't be hard to find by wading through their site for a
while.

Take advantage of this material... you've already paid handsomely for
it!

If you give me an offer I like..Ill ship em book rate. If you dont
like em..you ship em back. We are both out bookrate one way.

You will have a week to pay for them after you receive them, or send
them back. But I do expect an offer before sending them. I like
you..but I dont know you.

Id suggest you review the titles and the prices of the books as found
on the internet before making me an offer.

Id be more than happy to post an entire listing of the ILT books that
I have and provide some clear photographs. They are Mint++

My technical bookcase is 8' tall..and 8' wide ..and its overflowing
with books I have little or no need for.

Such as "Injection Moulding Handbook: Rusred"...and the World of Model
Trains, Guy R. Williams...and just about everything in between...."How
To Restore Your Collector Car, Brownell" or Clymers Ford Mustang and
Mercury Capri 1979-1987"...also mint+

Some of my books Id probably sell in other venues...such as the Steam
Fitters Book, 1872. Shrug

Some..are very collectable or rare. Others...simply reference books.


Such as a very small, paperback sized hard cover "They Oxy-Acetylene
Welders Handbook, Craftsman Tools, 4th Edition (1948)...mint +

Or The Fundementals of Dimensional Metrology, Bush Wilkie Brothers
Foundation, Second Edition (my second copy) Mint++ soft bound

Some you can download...like the above Fundimentals
http://findpdf.net/ebooks/books-abou...-download.html

Others..shrug

Surveying, Davis and Foot, Third Edition, 1940 edition, Excellent +
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Surveying-19...-/380274116037

Everybit as good a copy....shrug.

RS232 Made Easy, Second Edition, Martin D. Seyer, Mint+

http://www.ebay.com/itm/RS-232-Made-...-/190603781709


Millwaukee Milling Machines, Repair Parts Book Model 1h &2HL Swivel
Head Vertical Mil, Very Good condition+

Lots and lots of books . Ive been yard saleing, hitting swap meets
and 2nd hand stores for years and finding a book here and there. Ive
bought collections, sold some, kept some..the usual. Some of my
clients have cleaned out their libraries and I wound up with them. etc
etc.
Not a lot of call for Turret Lathe books anymore..except for the hobby
guy or someone who wants to fill a book shelf....shrug.


Ive got 2 mint copies (with dust covers)...of the "Colt, an American
Legend, RL Wilson". I only need one.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Colt-An-Amer...-/330780950883


I had 2 mint and one excellent copy of Ed McGivern's Fast and Fancy
Revolver Shooting" and traded the 2 mint 1st editions for a
sporterized Norwegian Krag -Jorgenson in 6.5 Swede , a few years ago.
We both got a good deal. Shrug.


Hell..I picked up a copy of Clymers "Imported Car Carberators" at an
estate sale a couple months ago. Cover is rough, rest of the book is
in Very good condition, has notes stuck in various pages from the
previous owner (dead 25 yrs)..bought it from the widows estate.

Excellent condition on Ebay..$112. Id take best offer over $20 for it
because of the cover.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Floyd-Clymer...-/190680515950

http://www.alibris.com/search/books/invid/11215514815

I see Jon Anderson has a copy for sale as well....

"Floyd Clymer's Handbook of Imported Car Carburetors & Fuel
Injection,, not sure of publication date. Covers Solex, SU, Weber
carbs, specific info for Alfa Romeo; Austin Mini; Austin Healey;
Austin Healey Sprite; Datsun; Fiat 600, 1100D & 1500 Roadster, Ford

Volvo, all models. $10 for all this rare and priceless info that
probably few people need...."

Anyone need a complete set of Hardinge Factory Manuals for Hardinge
CHNC II? Got a set in decent shape. Good set of manuals for a swap or
cash.. That would be $200-500 on ebay. Swap for??

Hanwa SL125 (Oi) Users Manual (CNC)

Lots of books...lots of stuff I really have no need for. Some cheap,
some reasonable. A few...pricey.

Cash is king, swap and trade come in a very close second place.

If there is no interest..maybe Ill get the roommate to do a listing of
all my tech books and start selling them on Ebay or someplace. Got
way way too many Im never going to ever use. And Ive got another
couple thousand still in boxes Ive not even looked at in 5 yrs or
more.

I only have NRA Firearms Assembly 3 &4. Id like to have the full set,
as a single example of swapping books for books or other Stuff.

How much are they worth..and how much are they worth to you?

Anybody have an idea?

I can perhaps make you a better deal than somone else for your
organization. But with the US economy in the toilet..it cant be free.

Lets see...

Airplane Drafting # N567

These as Ive stated..are Mint. No bull****.
7 days inspection allowed
Seriously.

I may..may have some other manuals, info sheets and whatnot from
various aircraft/models/ manufactures as well, but they are out in
sealed storage and it will be a week to find them if I spent 8 hours a
day looking. As I start clearing some of those containers and
boxes...Ill post them here first.

Which reminds me...rummaging through a drawer....

SanTech E-6B Computer

FDF-57B/60B Dead Reckoning Computer

As new. Still in the blue padded holder with the original factory
manual. And I mean NOS. Its pristine. The manual has some misfolded
pages..but it looks very very good. And of course..its one of the
aluminum ones. No wear anywhere. Zip.

http://www.yesterdaystechnology.com/...tech_e-6b.html

it was the unused spare of a gentleman who passed away some years back
WW 2 B-17 pilot turned oilfield executive who flew his Beech 24
regularly all over north america until just before his death some
10-15 or so years ago.

Worth $30 to anyone? Do I have a starting bid? Do I hear $20?

G

I dont have much else aircraft related. It has not a very big interest
of mine..way above my paygrade...so I never bothered much with books
and whatnot. Only picked up stuff I could use. The 20 odd airplane
related books came as part of an estate sale and the flight computer
as part of another estate sale. I bought a lot of books and tools from
those 2 sales.

Go not to the Net for answers, for it will tell you Yes and no. And
you are a bloody fool, only an ignorant cretin would even ask the
question, forty two, 47, the second door, and how many blonde lawyers
does it take to change a lightbulb.

One bleeding-heart type asked me in a recent interview if I did not
agree that "violence begets violence." I told him that it is my
earnest endeavor to see that it does. I would like very much to ensure
- and in some cases I have - that any man who offers violence to his
fellow citizen begets a whole lot more in return than he can enjoy.

Lindbergh had an eye for airplanes. Other than having the huge gas
tank at the center of gravity where the pilot usually sits, the 1927
Spirit of St Louis looks like the Cessnas flying around today rather
than a 1920's biplane.

It explains all the weird little symbols on "modern" blueprints, which
if followed, give you good parts.

I may..may have some other manuals, info sheets and whatnot from

SanTech E-6B Computer

As new. Still in the blue padded holder with the original factory

pages..but it looks very very good. And of course..its one of the
aluminum ones. No wear anywhere. Zip.

http://www.yesterdaystechnology.com/...tech_e-6b.html

it was the unused spare of a gentleman who passed away some years back
WW 2 B-17 pilot turned oilfield executive who flew his Beech 24
regularly all over north america until just before his death some
10-15 or so years ago.

Worth $30 to anyone? Do I have a starting bid? Do I hear $20?

I dont have much else aircraft related. It has not a very big interest
of mine..way above my paygrade...so I never bothered much with books
and whatnot. Only picked up stuff I could use. The 20 odd airplane
related books came as part of an estate sale and the flight computer
as part of another estate sale. I bought a lot of books and tools from
those 2 sales.

Yeah, 'cept for the bigass gas tank in front of the pilot's eyes. I

Along these same lines (but probably not as specialized as the above)
the FAA has a bunch of free publications generally related to methods
techniques, materials & practices... lots of great material buried in
here. Most (if not all) in pdf format.

http://www.faa.gov/regulations_polic...uals/aircraft/

http://www.faa.gov/regulations_polic...ory_circulars/

Far as advisory circulars (ACs) go, I suspect the most interest here
might be in parts 43 (AC43.13-2B is a really good one), and part 65
(AC65-12A & AC65-15A in particular), but be sure to look through them
all!

I've been having issues 'deep linking' to pages on the FAA's site... if
you have issues, go to:

http://www.faa.gov/

And do searches on both 'aircraft handbooks & manuals' and 'advisory
circulars', both sans quotes.

Also, NASA has some great stuff as well. This one on wiring, soldering,
crimping, cable lacing and related is excellent!

http://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/codeq/doctree/87394.pdf

NASA has much more, but I don't know where it all is off the top of my
head... shouldn't be hard to find by wading through their site for a
while.

Take advantage of this material... you've already paid handsomely for
it!

library - I'm president of our local recreational aircraft association
chapter.

How much are they worth..and how much are they worth to you?

Anybody have an idea?

I can perhaps make you a better deal than somone else for your
organization. But with the US economy in the toilet..it cant be free.

Lets see...

These as Ive stated..are Mint. No bull****.
7 days inspection allowed
Seriously.

I may..may have some other manuals, info sheets and whatnot from
various aircraft/models/ manufactures as well, but they are out in
sealed storage and it will be a week to find them if I spent 8 hours a
day looking. As I start clearing some of those containers and
boxes...Ill post them here first.

Which reminds me...rummaging through a drawer....

SanTech E-6B Computer

FDF-57B/60B Dead Reckoning Computer

As new. Still in the blue padded holder with the original factory
manual. And I mean NOS. Its pristine. The manual has some misfolded
pages..but it looks very very good. And of course..its one of the
aluminum ones. No wear anywhere. Zip.

it was the unused spare of a gentleman who passed away some years back
WW 2 B-17 pilot turned oilfield executive who flew his Beech 24
regularly all over north america until just before his death some
10-15 or so years ago.

Worth $30 to anyone? Do I have a starting bid? Do I hear $20?

I dont have much else aircraft related. It has not a very big interest
of mine..way above my paygrade...so I never bothered much with books
and whatnot. Only picked up stuff I could use. The 20 odd airplane
related books came as part of an estate sale and the flight computer
as part of another estate sale. I bought a lot of books and tools from
those 2 sales.

One bleeding-heart type asked me in a recent interview if I did not
agree that "violence begets violence." I told him that it is my
earnest endeavor to see that it does. I would like very much to ensure
- and in some cases I have - that any man who offers violence to his
fellow citizen begets a whole lot more in return than he can enjoy.

The bigger question is what will it cost to get them to Waterloo
Ontario???

Does book rate apply to mail going to Canada? I think its $3 for just
about any quantify of books. Can anyone clear this up?

No. Media Mail is US only. Maxes out at about 30 bucks for 70 pounds
(postal service won't carry anything over 70 pounds except as express
which is big bucks).

Cheapest way to send books international is usually a flat rate box--40
bucks to Canada for up to 20 pounds.

Can you email me pictures of a representative few?

Sure! Ill do that later tonight.

Ive got a first addition copy of Aircraft Welding by L.S. Elzea

Book is in pretty darned good condition, no noticible tears, no stains
the cover and its gold (gilt) printing is in excellent shape. Id rate
it, if it were a gun..about 98%

Book is filled with text and photographs of the actual how to do..of
welding aircraft frames and similar assemblies together. And how to
design and layout such assemblies. I believe this was printed for the
war effort as a master welding guide in ....the Introduction is from
Chris Beech, and the next page is a request from the Boeing company
for such a book in the war effort.

Anyone have any interest in this? Ill give you a 3 day inspection if
you would like.


I also have 21+ absolutely MINT volumes of a matched series of books
on Aircraft mechanics, pneudraulics, drafting, Aerodymanics and Flight
etc etc by the " International Library, International Textbook
Company, Scranton PA

According to Wiki...they were correspondence course books.

The books in The International Library of Technology were published by
I.T.C. These books were bound volumes of the course materials for the
more than 240 courses offered. These books were used and made
available in at least 184 Colleges (Including The U.S. Military
Academy at West Point and Cornell University) and at least 649 Public
Libraries.[4]

Absolutely mint..brand new condition. From my private collection.

Or Canada?

Hmmm, booze is two thirds the price in CA than in WA. If I stock
up, I can save enough to afford the gas and then some, and the trip
pays for itself. Hmm, still need the price of gas to go down to make
this work better. From here to Taft CA and then to Taft BC [another
place settled by the Wherethefugawi], and back is 2900 miles, - $485
dollars for gas, at 20 bucks a bottle is 24.5 bottles - two cases and
a bottle, make it three cases to show a profit - er allow for side
trips and Poste Canada. But that is just my savings. If I'm taking
orders ... half the savings to make my markup less than Washington's -
six cases. Hmmm, now all I need is the initial funding.
490 for gas, plus the 50 bottles run another 1000 ... less the fan
belt, oil change and replacing the shocks.
Dang it, "I can't afford to be cost effective."

Go not to the Net for answers, for it will tell you Yes and no. And
you are a bloody fool, only an ignorant cretin would even ask the
