Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SOURCES OF METALS TO THE ANCIENT EGYPTIANS. (a) Outline of Egyptian History. The practical points brought out by this work are ( 1) The value of microscopical examination in the study of ancient specimens: (2) The probability of a much earlier iron age in Egypt than that generally accepted: (3) The early use of the " cire perdu " process for castings; and (4) the comparatively late use of cold working associated with annealing for the shaping of vessels, etc. To the thoughtful person of the present day it must appear remarkable that man had inhabited the earth for hundreds of thousands of years before he began to use metals. During that tremendous lapse of time he had emerged from a state of utter barbarism, and, if we are to believe some scientists, had developed from an animal propelling himself on four legs into a being of human form capable of making implements and weapons for industrial and warlike purposes. The primitive natives of Egypt, like those of other prehistoric lands, in their search for improvements upon the stone-throwing methods of hunting and warfare of their simian coinhabitants, quickly learnt to fashion very useful implements of flint, and before the beginning of the historic age, the workmanship of these reached a standard of excellence superior to that of any other ancient country. Egyptian history may be traced back some 5,000 years. Before that, we only know that man existed and that a certain stage of civilisation had been attained immediately prior to the invention of the art of writing, at which point all history begins. The first general application of metals in Egypt does not appear to have been very much anterior to the invention of writing. No doubt the cutting and engraving of stones upon which records and memoirs were to be made, called for tools of a material less friable than flint, with which it- was only possible to make rough scratchings upon the surface, and the ancients were thus compelled to try other minerals that were lying in plenty around them, being thus led forward to the discovery of metals, which advanced the art of recording thoughts and deeds to an extent now difficult to appreciate.

This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Metallurgy and Wheels, the Story of Men, Metals and Motors Reading through the General Motors' Silver Anniversary number, I ask myself how many know of the important part played by metallurgy in making possible today's automobile - a vehicle that runs 50,000 to 100,000 miles under the most trying conditions of rough handling and speed without the failure of a part? Do you know... ... That the first metallurgical laboratories for the microscopic study and control of steel, and its heat treatment, for the General Motors Corp., were put under way in 1911 by Carl Zimmerschied, later president of Chevrolet? ... That many of the men, now big in the industry, then laughed at us for looking at steel through a glass? ... That microphotos which showed the grain structure of the steel were derided as looking like the "picture of a cookie?" ... That when Bill Woodside told an engineer in one of the early automobile companies that he had heat treated a set of steering knuckles and arms to put in his car, the engineer said: "Nothing doing! I don't want any tempered steel in my car; I've seen enough tempered tools bust!" ... That the old Cadillac four-cylinder car was the first General Motors car to use alloy steel, and this was put into the transmission gears and pinions? (Because of this move, Walter Phipps was known as "one of the greatest metallurgists of the day.") ... That there were only two different types of alloy steel used in automobiles in the early days - and now there are more than forty? ... That broken axle shafts, piled room-high, and bushel baskets full of broken gears and bearings, all from the field, were common sights - and today, such types of failure are rare?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ancient Workers and Artificers in Metal: From References in the Old Testament and Other Ancient Writings The origin of metallurgical operations can only be subject of speculation, varying according to the position and imagination of the individual venturing the solution of such a problem. The wonderful results of the operations, and their importance to man, have caused many, both in ancient and modern times, to believe and assert that the art must have been communicated to man by the gods. Others, again, have ascribed the origin of the manufacturing of metals to accident - that certain minerals, by the force of fire, might be made to yield a metal, and by repeating the experiment on other minerals, other metals may have been found out, and ultimately all the different forms in which they lie concealed in the earth.
