Summary: "The Engineer's Sketch-Book of Mechanical Movements, Devices, Appliances, Contrivances and Details" by Thomas Walter Barber is a technical publication written in the early 20th century. This comprehensive work serves as a reference guide for engineers, mechanical draughtsmen, and those involved in the mechanical arts, detailing a wealth of mechanical designs and movements. The book aims to provide visual sketches and descriptions of various mechanical components to serve as a practical resource and inspiration for design and construction. The opening of the text features a preface from the author, discussing the necessity of having a consolidated resource for sketches and notes related to mechanical movements that engineers often need. Barber emphasizes that engineers constantly innovate and improve upon existing designs, and he outlines his intention to create a systematic collection of sketches that can aid both experienced professionals and newcomers. The initial sections catalog devices such as anchors, adjusting devices, and belt gearing, illustrating their utility with concise definitions and sketches, thus highlighting the importance of visual aids in understanding complex mechanical concepts.
