Model Engineers Handbook Tubal Cain 3rd edition
No gripe just a heads up and asking if anyone else has found their copy with the same problem.
I purchased Model Engineers Handbook by Tubal Cain 3rd edition some 3 yrs ago only ever flipped through it. Last night I dragged it off the shelf to do some ground work on electrics which is section 12 of the book. No section 12 not even section 11 or 13 I thought I was going bonkers as all I kept seeing was section 8, 9 & 10 yep they had bound the book with double those sections left out 11, 12 & 13.
Waiting to hear from the supplier in Victoria as to the possibility of a replacement or if his lot are all the same.

Pity its not a bank note.
Mine was printed in 2007 and has 11, 12 and 13.
I wonder if there is someone out there with two lots of 11, 12 and 13?

Mine has the full complement of chapters, also a 2007 print. Maybe yours was an earlier reprint.

And mine is the same, seems like the OP was pretty unlucky with the copy he got, but as the seller is going to look after him, all should be well. Wheelinround, if there is any particular part that you want, I will photograph mine for you and send it as a pdf if you like, unless your replacement is going to be in your hands real soon. There are only 12 pages in ch. 12, so no big deal,
Rob.

Good-oh Ray, you have something to tide you over till the replacement arrives, so no problem if it takes a while, as sometimes these things do. Cheers,
Rob.
