could someone that received the MedTech CD pull and post the file on books for making science equipment for me? RR seems to have nuked it from here and my masters are buried. Need to send it to someone.

It should be in the logistics forlder.

Thanks,

OK - it's not on the CD, as far as I can tell.

Does anyone have that file backed up from here? It's a list of books and url's for information on making science/lab equipment - fairly short.

thanks,

found it! - however, I had updated it since this post to add a couple. Anyone have the revised edition?


books on making science equipment

http://icase.unl.edu/guidboks/guidebok.htm

The Scientific American Book of Projects for the Amature Scientist, C.L. Strong

Build it Yourself Science Laboratory, Raymond E. Barrett

700 Science Projects for Everyone - originally published as: UNESCO Source Book for Science Teaching

Illustrated Handbook of General Science Teaching Aids by John Alusik

for those that want to get serious, or perhaps just disected the family appliences as a youth:

Building Scientific Apparatus; A Practical Guide to Design and Construction, by J. Moore, C. Davis and M. Coplan, 2nd edition.
(this book is technical)

for the more adventurous, (or bored), sites that contain instructions for making illicit drugs sometimes have interesting ideas for improvising lab equipment.
