Synopsis

"Cranky Machines" explores the fascinating world of aging mechanical systems and their enduring relevance in modern industry, challenging the common assumption that newer equipment is always better. The book presents a compelling analysis of how legacy machines, some dating back to the early 20th century, continue to play vital roles in contemporary manufacturing and industrial processes.

 
Through detailed case studies and technical analyses, it demonstrates how certain vintage equipment often represents optimal solutions for specific industrial applications, supported by empirical data on reliability and cost-effectiveness. The narrative unfolds across three main themes: the engineering principles behind long-lasting mechanical systems, the economic factors supporting their continued operation, and the maintenance strategies ensuring their longevity.

 
Drawing from previously unpublished maintenance records and expert interviews, the book provides valuable insights into successful preservation techniques and retrofit planning. Particularly noteworthy are examples like textile mills operating century-old looms and power plants running generators from the 1950s, illustrating the remarkable durability and adaptability of well-maintained mechanical systems.

 
Written in an accessible yet technically precise style, the book progresses from fundamental mechanical engineering principles to practical maintenance strategies and modern control system integration. It serves as both a technical reference and strategic guide, offering frameworks for evaluating equipment replacement decisions and maintaining aging infrastructure. The work uniquely bridges mechanical engineering with economics and environmental sustainability, making it invaluable for professionals managing industrial equipment and students studying mechanical engineering.

As a Man Thinketh (version 2)

James Allen

As a Man Thinketh is a literary essay of James Allen, published in 1902. The title is influenced by a verse in the Bible from the Book of Proverbs chapter 23 verse 7, “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.” The main concepts of this book as as follows: * Men do not attract what they want, but what they are. * A man is literally what he thinks, his character being the complete sum of all his thoughts. * Cherish your visions. Cherish your ideals. Cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts, for out of them will grow all delightful conditions, all heavenly environment, of these, if you but remain true to them your world will at last be built. * The soul attracts that which it secretly harbors, that which it loves, and also that which it fears. It reaches the height of its cherished aspirations. It falls to the level of its unchastened desires - and circumstances are the means by which the soul receives its own. * Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves, they therefore remain bound. * Every action and feeling is preceded by a thought. * Right thinking begins with the words we say to ourselves. * Circumstance does not make the man, it reveals him to himself. * You cannot travel within and stand still without. * As the physically weak man can make himself strong by careful and patient training, so the man of weak thoughts, can make them strong by exercising himself in right thinking.(Introduction by Wikipedia)
