John Grantham's Iron Ship Building (5th Ed. 1850's) in PDF form for those interested.

Hi all,

I recently needed to refer to this book and found a copy on Internet Archive.

It was a bit of a hassle to keep going back and forth online, logging-in, logging-out, etc. etc., so I created a PDF copy for my local use, and it turned out OK, so I thought others may be interested.

Its all diagrams, no narrative or explanations, so if you're into fine detail or just want some awesome prints for the shed wall, you won't be disappointed.

Here's a couple of example pages, a link to the Internet Archive and a direct link to this specific book, enjoy.

PDF = 37 pages.

Re: Copyright.
From my experience, extracting portions of copyright works for educational purposes is acceptable.

Internet Archive is a free, publicly available online lending resource.

So, I don't think its an issue.

Anyway, OpenAI, Meta and a few others are a long way ahead of me in the 'stealing stuff from the net' lawsuit game, so...
