Index of Magazines? Stuart 10V articles?

[AlasdairMParticipant @alasdairm]

Hi there,

 

I have just subscribed to Model Engineer as I believe that there have been articles in there in the past on the Stuart 10V.

 

I have access to the Digital editions as part of my subscription, but cannot see any index to the magazines.

 

Does a global index exist anywhere? Is it “searchable” for all articles on the Stuart 10V?

 

Apologies if the answer is obvious, but I cannot see it anywhere!

 

Regards, Alasdair

There are indexes about but not that searchable, this is the one I usually use.

The numbers I think you are looking for Alasdair are, 4384 to 4390

 

Also have a look at http://www.homews.co.uk/page42.html and following pages

 

If you ever have the need for an index for MEW, look at http://www.homews-mew-index.co.uk

its a basic index but may help in some cases.

Hi Alasdair,

 

You can search this ME and MEW index for an article, author, subject etc and then find it in the archive.  (and even EIM)

 

Best Regards

 

Terry

Wow – thanks to all responders – what a quick set of answers!

 

I have had a look and the “itech.net.au” link as suggested by a couple of you looks the best I think for me.

 

Ta again, Alasdair

And thanks also Harold for the link to your site – the pictures and explanations look like a goldmine of useful information that I am sure I will refer to on a regular basis.

The first description of building a Stuart 10V I can find is a series by ‘Exactus’ entitled “Building a Steam Engine from Castings”. The first instalment appeared in the 2nd October 1958 issue (Volume 119). Typical grainy photographs of the time, though. I have a feeling that it was issued as a reprint at some stage.

As Geoff suggests, there is a MAP publication called “Building a Steam Engine from Castings” by Edgar Westbury . The 10V was the first project I built, made with the aid of this book, it came with the odds and ends with my old Zyto lathe. In the front of the book it states that Exactus was workshop name of Model Engineer staff. Oliver Smith did the construction and Edgar T Westbury was the author. There are several used copies shown on Amazon UK for about £5.

I can recommend the above book, i used to it make my first project (a 10v) also works for the 10h as the machining principles are practically the same.
