Ahhhh! OK. Thanks Tony.
I was clicking on all the tabs and trying to use the suggested search terms, but was coming up empty.

And thank you for pointing us to the site Tom!

Some firebrick, a little steel to hold it together and some nichrome wire and you could have one. PID controllers like the one in the video can be had for around $40.

You forgot the large wads of cash to pay the power bill.

there is a search window on the top of that page if you have an idea or know the title of the books you want just enter it there and click at least that6 is how it works for me. I have sourced several books from the site onhe of which my xyl gave me trouble for printing as it was nearly 400 pages. tom

Another good book that can also be found at this site is Advanced shop arithmetic for the machinist, lots of info in this publication also. tom

Also search practical machinist for further info.

today I bought a new KOBE vox-e-reader to be able to download lots of these books to read at my liesure but for some reason it seems all of my try's fail does anyone have any ideas. I am using e-pub format but doesn't seem to work. tom

Tom,

According to the specs for that e-reader you should be able to read e-pub files. I don't know what to tell you since I'm not familiar with that particular e-reader. Can you tell me a specific e-pub file that you're trying to read and I'll see if it works on my Kindle which also reads e-pub files.
