If you are going to really get serious about robot construction, you must have this massive book! Written by Gordon McComb, author of the classic (but slightly outdated) Robot Builders Bonanza, Robot Builders Sourcebook is totally new and up-to-date. It lists suppliers of all the bits-in-pieces, you are even likely to need to pursue the construction of your dream machine, over 150 separate categories. It also includes lists of relevant books, societies, help groups, services, you name it. You not only get component sources, you get materials sources, as well as manufacturing facilities. In all, over 2,500 sources for robot parts. Apart from this, there are dozens of helpful primers on likely sources of useful parts, such as old VCR�s etc. We think that book is also an unbelievable bargain. Softcover 280 x 215mm. 711 pages.
