[TheForge] Re: Sheet metal roller qestion

[John L. Dilbeck]

Mike,

I've spent the last few weeks building a system for searching 
Amazon.com that's much faster than searching on their site and still 
has access to their entire database -- including used books.

I searched for How to Work Sheet Metal and found it and several other 
relevant books.

Whether you want to purchase from Amazon.com or not, and whether you 
want to purchase through my bookstore or not, you're all welcome to 
use my system to search for books.

http://johndilbeck.com/cgi-bin/amazon/amazonproductsfeed.pl?input_templates=2&input_string=How+to+Work+Sheet+Metal&input_mode=books

(of course all of that needs to be on one line).

If you click on my buy link, it'll take you to Amazon.com's server 
and you can read more, add a book to your wish list, purchase it if 
Amazon.com sells it, or click on the used link to find used copies of 
the book. It doesn't cost anything until you actually purchase a new 
or used book, so don't let the wording of the link on my site stop 
you from clicking the link.

Amazon.com doesn't have any for sale, but there are four used copies 
starting from about $40.00 to about $80.00.

That search also lists several other related books.

If you leave the search box blank and choose a major topic such as 
books or magazines, it'll show subcategories. If you click on a 
subcategory, it'll show the current best sellers. If you enter 
keywords, title, author or whatever in the search box, it'll search 
in your selected category for matching items.

Have fun.

JD
