Internet Archive - useful resource for woodworking books

[RobNichols]

I was looking for a copy of Fine woodworking on proven shop tips, when I can across a copy in the Internet Archive. I was chuffed to bits as hard copies were all quite expensive. Even with a donation accessing the book was significantly cheaper.

And then I started searching and found there are lots of really interesting woodworking books available. This is a really useful resource IMO.

Rob, I haven't donated, but I am interested. In a previous 'edition' of this Google-based service, it was "turned off for your region". You had no bother getting a clean download? Secondly, did you notice if the credit card security icons were in place?

I view the books via a web interface and donated via Paypal.

Thanks. That makes sense.
