REFERENCE LIBRARY — 007

Resources

A running collection of tools, references, and books I have found genuinely useful as a student and maker. I hope you find them as useful as I have. If you have any suggestions for resources, I would love to hear from you!

R-01 · TOOLS & REFERENCES04 ITEMS

Handy web tool for generating textured and knurled surfaces you can drop straight into a CAD model or 3D print. Essentially an overpowered fuzzy skin tool.

BME Reference Library

A broad and detailed encyclopedia of all things biomedical engineering. Written by Joseph Sharp here at UNC, this reference library gives a great overview of the major areas of research in BME.

I'm not sure I've ever seen a website as dedicated to a specific subject as boltscience.com. Any questions regarding bolted joints has surely been answered at some point on this website in its over 30 years of operation.

Really cool feature-rich and easy-to-use graphics editor for embedded systems projects. No more painstaking code changes and waiting for your microcontroller to flash for the 1000th time in a row to see your edits.

R-02 · BOOKS03 ITEMS

Exact Constraint: Machine Design Using Kinematic Principles

Douglass L. Blanding · ASME Press, 1999If I had one book to recommend, it would be this masterpiece on mechanical design. Exact-constraint design is a brilliantly simple and effective technique that all engineers and makers should be familiar with.

Mechanisms, Linkages, and Mechanical Controls

Nicholas P. Chironis · McGraw-Hill, 1965If you find yourself needing some sort of mechanism, it's probably already in this book waiting to be found. Chironis delivers 354 pages of inspiring mechanisms and designs.

Shigley's Mechanical Engineering Design

Richard G. Budynas & J. Keith Nisbett · McGraw-Hill, 11th ed., 2019A classic in mechanical engineering with something to give for readers of all levels.
