| car builder solutions: Motorcycle Modification John Hardaker, 2024-10-21 Modification is an important part of the total experience for many motorcyclists in the search for individuality, to make improvements or simply to make a beloved machine more suitable for their own use. It also supports a whole industry of parts suppliers, modifiers and manufacturers as well as providing the opportunity for all types of individual effort. All types of modification have one thing in common: the overriding need to see that the change does not make the machine less safe to ride than the original. This excellent book from John Hardaker proposes a simple method – based on long-established aircraft and aero engine practices – of reviewing intended modification at an early stage so that any potential safety problems can be avoided. The book is more than just a simple manual; it is a fascinating history and in some ways a biography, incorporating many memories from the author’s long career, various related (and unrelated!) thoughts and a few original and possibly controversial suggestions which occurred to the author at the time of writing. Yet rather than preach, the author invites the reader to agree or disagree with any or all of these deviations from the basic method. In writing the book, the author avoids the intricate detail of complicated engineering theory so as to ensure that the text is readily understandable to all motorcyclists, especially those who do not claim to be professional engineers but are still contemplating modifying their machines… or are simply interested in all thing mechanical. Originally published in 2020, this digital edition includes the additional information from the second printed edition, in particular the conversion of two-wheeled machines into three-wheelers. If you are considering modifying your own motorcycle, or are interested to read about one professional’s experience in the field, this is the ideal addition to your bookshelf. |

| car builder solutions: The Overlanding Vehicle Builder's Guide Don Alexander, 2024-03-15 What is overlanding? Wikipedia states, Overlanding is self-reliant overland travel to remote destinations where the journey is the principal goal. Typically (but not exclusively), it is accomplished with mechanized off-road-capable transport (from bicycles to trucks) where the principal form of lodging is camping. It often lasts for extended periods of time (months to years) and spans international boundaries. Overlanding did not originate in America, and it is a little different here. You would be hard-pressed to find a bicycle out in the desert, and most people don’t stay out there quite that long. However, the spirit of the activity is the same. Do you want to give overlanding a try? Great! You will need some gear. In The Overlanding Vehicle Builder’s Guide, veteran racer, off-roader, and journalist Don Alexander provides a terrific overview of what to consider when building your overlanding rig. This includes the planned duration of the trip, the number of people in your party, how far off the beaten path you want to go, and the creature comforts you require. Understanding those wants and needs shapes what gear you need for the best experience. Covered are the strengths and weaknesses of the types of vehicles themselves, modifications to the vehicles to make them more capable, accessories (lighting, camping gear, food and water storage, etc.), and equipment for trail mishaps and recovery. Driving techniques and trail rules and etiquette are also included. If you are ready to build a rig or just want to know more about the hobby, this book is a great guide to help you get started. |

| car builder solutions: Palace Car Prince Liston E. Leyendecker, 1992 Palace Car Prince is the first book-length biography of George Pullman (1831-1897), an entrepreneur whose name became synonymous with the golden age of U.S. railroad travel in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. In this impressively researched work, Liston Leyendecker portrays the transformation of a man of vision who ascended to prominence following the Civil War only to lose control of his empire in the face of a rapidly changing world of industrial and labor relations. An adventurous young man, Pullman ventured, westward to Chicago and Colorado from his upstate New York home, eventually leaving a successful store in the Colorado goldfields in 1863 to return to Chicago and form his Palace Car Company, the manufacturer of luxury sleeping cars. Though Pullman's hard work brought him the admiration, power, and wealth he sought, it also tired him and made him increasingly irascible. As the Palace Car Company prospered, Pullman--who initially was regarded as a hands-on manager--became removed from the company's daily affairs. He relied more and more on the advice of his brother Albert, and growing isolation continued throughout his career and extended into family matters. The results of Pullman's aloofness became particularly apparent when, during the railroad workers' strike of 1894, he was publicly vilified as the archetypal nineteenth-century robber baron for his stubborn refusal to negotiate with the suffering strikers. |

In Hard Coal and Coal Cars, Martin Robert Karig chronicles the rise and fall of the O & W's coal hauling operation in a richly illustrated work that interweaves economic, industrial, and technological history. Karig opens his history with the intense competition for the rights to eastern Pennsylvania's lucrative coal-hauling business. He then details the technological developments that transformed coal cars from wooden carts carrying just a few hundred pounds to steel hoppers hauling several tons. Bringing the story into the twentieth century, Karig explains how the O & W's ownership ultimately abandoned the coal-hauling business in the 1950s as coal was supplanted by more reliable and convenient home heating fuels. Rich with the romance of the railroad and crucial to any understanding of Pennsylvania history, Hard Coal and Coal Cars will be the definitive book on a fascinating chapter of American life. |
