Excerpt from The Amateur Mechanic
I might qualify the above statement by saying that if you are an amateur it will pay you to scan the following pages before you try to do mechanical things.
The idea I have tried to carry out is to parallel the case of the locomotive engineer. You know, of course, that he did not build the engine he drives but he knows every part of it, exactly how it works, how to run it to get the most power, or speed, or both, out of it with the highest fuel economy and, further, if he should have a breakdown on the road he knows just how to make whatever repairs are needed to go on with his run.
