Hey Hondaman - I bought your book. Initially I thought it was probably over priced but I've read a lot of your postings and thought they were good. I also thought odds were that's it's an amateurish book. After receiving it, here's my review.......this book is never going to have a huge audience. There just are not hundreds of thousands of people that do this stuff. That being said, what an amazing effort. First, most small publications like this are terribly written. Sometimes they make you think English is their 3rd or 4th language. This is really well written which in turn, makes it easier to grasp technical / mechanical concepts. The amount of information, subjects covered and the detail is astounding. It totally exceeded my expectations. Nothing is worse than trying to decipher poor quality black and white photos. The pictures in your book are in color and high quality. Lastly, the overall quality of the book is excellent. It just looks good. So back to the price.... having it in my possession, I'd say that this is a bargain and I am glad I bought it. It's going to keep me from shooting myself in the foot and my inclination to pull out a hammer when I'm struggling with something. There's probably been a lot of accolades for your effort but I figured I'd throw my 2 cents in as I am a very satisfied customer. Thanks.
In general this site has blown me away. There are so many people that know what they're talking about. I donated $50 because I hope this site stay alive for a long time.
