    If you want to be able to contribute more knowingly, here are a few
    suggestions. Almost All from Amazon.com ...

    These would be good for many of the "Materials As A Hobby" individuals
    as well.

    Carroll Smith and J E Gordon are particularly readable. M F Ashby and
    his view of materials selection will provide you with an insight and
    overview that you will find nowhere else. Gordon's other books are
    really good and a little repetitive to his first one.

    Ashby has some older textbooks that are indeed excellent as well.
