And the obvious lack of effort that goes in to writing them can piss me off. Best example that I can think of right now is in the oxy-acetylene welding paper, "What preperation is need for fusion welding of exhausts?". What it says in the book.. "No preperation is needed. Clean up the edges with a wire brush, taking care to remove any projecting scale or oxide." Well.. I'd assume I'm supposed to write down the wire brushing bit.. but you never know. And it doesn't matter what IS right, it just has to be what is in the book.

Huge waste of time that, and it wasn't a good first impression, sort of put me in the wrong mind set, and left me there Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
