Looks like a great reference book. I might have to add it to my next order - I'm slowly building up my library.

Thanks for the advise  ^^^

I have a copy of this

it is very detailed and a very good reference book however it is in many ways too detailed at times and may confuse those newer to the hobby - it took me a few times to read most section before i got a handle on what he was saying (or maybe i am just slow?)


however it is a very good reference on individual specialist parts that a particular to certain manufacturers and how they work/fit together

Suspected so with that name..

Looks like Dutch descended South African - pretty well credentialed too!
