Mastering Tools for Home Improvement
This book is an exploration and celebration of tools. It's not a complete reckoning, but it spans most commonly encountered tools and many of their lesser knownvariants. It's an attempt to unravel the complex tapestry of how tools relate to oneanother, their use, and the esoteric language that enshrouds them. Simply put, thisbook will teach you what a hammer is, tell you which one to buy, and explain how itcame into being.Tools are an important part of the human story. Our evolution is chronicled by thetools we've made. Stone Age. Bronze Age. The Industrial Revolution. Sure, in part it'sbecause those tools are the remnants that survive us, waiting millennia to beunearthed along some riverbank, but it's also because our ability to shape the worldaround us is largely what's defined our species. We've been doing it for millions ofyears, and in lockstep our evolution of purpose-built tools has grown in size ... whilealso becoming ever less approachable.That's the difficulty of these storied objects. They are an intimidatingly deep wellof specifications and jargon that's daunting to unpack.Think of this book as a low-resolution map. While it might not have detailedinformation on every tool, it provides context, connecting the dots for the newlyinterested while filling in some gaps for the more seasoned. By cataloging a widevariety of tools, I hope to plant the seeds for future discoverability and help you askthe right questions.

Euston - A History and Modelling the 1875 Station
A guide for modeling Victorian architecture, inspired by a community restoration project.Euston Station was the first intercity railway gateway for London and with the famed Doric Arch became a major landmark of that city. Initially built for the London and Birmingham Railway, it became the terminus of the LNWR Premier Line, then HQ of the London Midland and Scottish. The controversial 1960's demolition of the site stimulated the building preservation movement. Latterly we have a challenging on / off love affair with the area through the High Speed Two project. This book contains both a background history of Euston and its environs, combined with a modellers review of building a 'OO' gauge mid Victorian station complex. A core model of the old station was kindly donated to the Market Deeping Model Railway Club (MDMRC) following the sad act of vandalism of their model railway show in 2019. This in turn served as a stimulus to expand, detail and research during the Covid isolation and lockdown years. This book is the end result of these endeavours. We use the model to underpin the history and allow a geographical walkthrough of the site, plus hints, tips and techniques on building a landmark model. It has been an enjoyable and eye opening challenge to unveil the story under, through and over Euston. Written and contributed to by members of the MDMRC, all royalties will go the club. Charity number: 1187779.

Objects of Empire
A comparative, empire-wide study of the ceramics associated with the imperial Inca state, theorizing the role of these highly recognizable vessel forms in legitimizing Inca rule and establishing imperial identities. The beautiful polychrome ceramics of the imperial Inca state have long been noted for their seemingly repetitive nature but little considered beyond this basic observation. The widespread distribution and general uniformity of the Inca pottery, however, hints at its larger importance to the imperial project. Moving beyond the pervasive "seen one, seen 'em all" mentality, Objects of Empire brings to light the variability and rich semiotic content of imperial Inca vessels. Taking a comparative, empire-wide approach, Tamara Bray identifies the parameters and significance of this variability, and defines the core elements of the imperial state style. She then investigates where, when, and why differences and deviations from the perceived norm occur. This study illuminates the strategies of territorial expansion and political control that lay at the heart of the Inca juggernaut, as well as the role of objects in the calculus of would-be rulers and subjects. Based on a unique and extensive database of imperial Inca pottery developed through detailed study of archaeologically recovered and museum-based collections, Objects of Empire reveals how power and legitimacy were produced and reproduced under the Inca through the material culture of everyday life.
