  • The Ukulele Handbook

    Bloomsbury Publishing Plc The Ukulele Handbook

    10 in stock

    Book SynopsisThe definitive illustrated guide to the ukulele, from its history to how to play, including a fantastic songbook. The ukulele has gone from strength to strength in recent years, undergoing a massive resurgence. You can hear the uke all over the place, from trendster indie rock to top ten pop songs, from unshakeable TV ads to YouTube megahits. And this obsession shows no sign of abating - all over the country people are picking up a ukulele and starting to strum, at home, in classes and down at the pub. Schools are even replacing the faithful recorder with a jazzy, inexpensive uke. Famous idlers Gavin Pretor-Pinney and Tom Hodgkinson have spent hours idling away on their ukuleles to produce the ultimate uke handbook: an illustrated guide to its history crossed with a how-to guide and songbook. This is the book that will bring the underground movement into the mainstream. The first half of the book delves into the rich history of this eccentric little instrument, from its birth in Hawaii to its popularity across the world, with a timeline from 1879 to today and a ukulele hall of fame that includes George Formby, Hawaiian legend Israel Kamakawiwo''ole and YouTube ukulele superstar Jake Shimabukuro. Then on to the practicalities: the anatomy of the ukulele, which uke to buy, how to play it, how to strum, pick, read chord charts and tune the strings. Once you know all this, you can get playing the songbook, which includes a wide spread of songs from medieval lays and nursery rhymes to blues and rock ''n roll. Beautiful presentation and tab notation make reading the music easy, even for beginners. With the highest production values, a light touch and an irresistible instrument at centre stage, this book is a must-have for all aspiring Formbys.

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book deals with the process of choosing and using a milling machine and its accessories. In addition to the machine itself, the accessories include the cutters, cutter chucks, workpiece clamps, vices, angle plates, dividing heads, rotary tables, boring heads and other minor items. The content is divided into three main sections. Firstly, it describes what machines and accessories are available and covering each one in detail. The author explains which are essential and which can be obtained when the workshop activity eventually demands one. There are also suggestions on how the equipment chosen should be installed. The usage of each machine and accessory is covered for all but their most complex uses. Typically, using the rotary table and the dividing head are both described to a detail sufficient for the majority of uses that will surface in the home workshop. The third section deals with the actual machining process, covering the choice of the cutter for the task in hand, the speeds to use and how the direction of the feed relative to the cutter rotation is vitally important. A less-understood feature of milling, back cutting, is also explained. The subject of sharpening milling tools is briefly covered and a simple off hand grinder fixture that will bring new life to a used end mill is described.Table of ContentsChoosing the Machine.

  • Warships and Warship Modelling

    Special Interest Model Books Warships and Warship Modelling

    Out of stock

    Book SynopsisThis is a book which will appeal equally to naval enthusiasts and ship modellers. It offers an overview of the design, development and classification of modern warship types and it studies the constructors' original models, explaining why and how they were made. The reader is shown how to research and select information on specific ships and how to find and understand plans. The book then turns to scale modelling with detailed chapters on choosing a subject, a scale, methods of construction (scratch or kit?), materials and techniques and the details of fittings and painting. The book leaves the reader with a deeper insight into the direct relationship between the full sized vessel and the realistic scale model or working model. The work presents an overview of the design, development and classification of modern warship types and offers an appreciation of the complex structures associated with real warship designs and how they can be related to those on warship models. It is illustrated by over 100 of the authors' fine quality photographs, many of which have never been published before.Trade ReviewThe desire to build model ships has for centuries been well established as an aid to design, as an art form, as a presentation piece or just for the sheer pleasure of producing a small scale version of a seagoing ship. The most marvellous models of famous ships have appeared produced from such disparate materials as wood, bone, metal and even matchsticks. The more elaborate are works of art and many are of considerable value. Model warship building may range from an Airfix Kit with numbered plastic parts all ready to be glued together and painted, to industrial models made by professionals which appear in builders' trade exhibitions, shipping offices and museums. Somewhere between the two will be found the keen amateur model maker, at whom this book is aimed. For the would-be model maker, there is no lack of advice which may be obtained from trawling the internet, from dedicated magazines, from model makers' clubs and from a variety of publications. Wooley and Clarke's handsome book is the latest addition to the genre. The primary aim of their book, they claim, is to lead the reader from an 'industrial' view of ship models into an altogether different dimension, but connected by a common thread. This seems to mean studying professional techniques of model making for inspiration to 'follow their passion and build a working or static model war ship'. A further aim is to provide a guide through definitions of various types of warship, thus enabling the reader to 'appreciate through first rate photographs the form and function of the warship, not just as a vessel of war but as a statement, and in a few instances, an embodiment of national pride'. Wooley and Clarke certainly have a way with words. The authors aspire to somewhat lofty aims for their readers, and their book is designed to assist readers to achieve these aspirations. Having suitably inspired the reader in chapters one and two, chapters which follow aim to help 'translate that desire and possible inspiration gained to make that transition from passive enthusiast with an interest in warships to active modeller, and help give guidance down a more practical path'. To this end, a closer study of their book reveals a methodical and practical guide to their chosen subject. Ten chapters, three appendices and a page of references for further reading, cover everything a warship model maker might need to know. Researching a project, planning a workshop, choosing a subject and deciding scale, constructional methods, building up superstructures, warship fittings, painting and camouflage and the operation of working models. All presented with a profusion of stylish photographs which illustrate the text, the better to explain the techniques suggested. A full scope of modelling activity designed to lead ultimately, as the authors romantically claim, to the 'joy of sailing the new creation that is a model warship'. Their enthusiasm is a pleasure to behold - The Nautical MagazineTable of ContentsThe Warship. Constructors' Models. Research, Plans and Helpful Publications. Getting the Best from a Workshop.
