Now if Tim De Paravicini wrote it I might be tempted....


Do you expect he'd explain things like how to unpot his transformers so you
can see their construction? IIRC he has said he puts hardened steel balls
into the pot mix to stop any other engineer from examining his work. So I
guess he prefers to be a 'guru wizard' with his 'magic secrets' rather than
someone willing to explain the details of engineering. If so, not what I'd
look for in the author of a technical textbook.

Slainte,

Jim


It was a tad tongue in cheek Jim

I used to sell transformers to Tim years ago when I worked for Clarke &
Smith (happy Vortexion days!)....

He literally used to draw his designs on the back of a fag packet
(just that one time though )
