Description
This practical guide to mechanical engineering is designed for makers who want to learn the essentials without an engineering degree. With a focus on hands-on projects and accessible materials, it covers common concepts in a user-friendly way.
From basic mechanics to more complex topics like thermodynamics and fluids, this book provides a comprehensive introduction to the subject. Each chapter includes step-by-step instructions for building a project, using inexpensive materials and tools wherever possible.
The projects are linked together by an overarching theme - building a kid-sized tank - allowing readers to see how different concepts apply in real-world situations. With its approachable tone and entertaining insights, this book makes complex ideas easy to understand and enjoy.
