I've had all four for quite a few years now. Wonderful little books for beginners.... and a nice reference source for advanced builders as well. Get 'em while you can kids!

Very educative! Thanks for linking.

Stephen: be sure to dig deeper into the avensonaudio directories

I've had all four for quite a few years now.

Four? I have seven including the four that were posted. I can scan them if anyone wants. The other ones I have are called: "Digital Logic Circuits," "Communications Projects," and "Formulas, Tables, and Basic Circuits." Also if someone will host them, I will gladly give them out to be posted.

How bout this for a piece of fried gold? http://www.hagioteam.com/5/2286/Ebooks/Engineers_Mini-Notebook__Science_Projects.html

It has ALL 12 of the Mim's Engineer's Mini-Notebooks. Actually I have one that is not on this site. Its the Formulas one. I can still scan that if you guys want.

Hey, thanks for the link, Calpoly! 

I suggest everyone get the files from the link I listed first because you don't have to mess with passwords or the download limit of Rapidshare where the others are located.

regards, Jack

Yay, a whole weekend of reading. Checked one of them out and loved it. All the info needed and none too much.

Thanks for the link, Calpolyengineer! My son has a couple of the larger books (came with one of the RS LearningLabs) that are packed with great info as well. Geez....now I gotta go find them!

  I don't know why I can't see it, and why my computer went into 'dry heaves' when I tried to.. 

[calpolyengineer]

I noticed something on the download page about the files being automatically deleted after 30 days. I don't know if it is true, but I know I will definately print these out just in case.

they probably only "borrowed" the "CopyRights" for a short period...

If you add this to your HOSTS file:

127.0.0.1 popunder.PayPopup.com

it will stop those annoying pop-unders that seem to get by Firefox...

Holy f'in crap! I bought the opto electronics one when I was like 11! I had my allowance in my pocket and decided I'd go spend it at Rat Shack for some ungodly reason. I never did a thing out of it and I lost it. Wow. Obscure memories.

[psiico]

Wow, these are great.  Thanks for posting!

Forrest Mims and his books are treasures.

All of those Mini-Notebooks are still in print and for sale at Forrest's web site:

http://www.forrestmims.com/engineers_mini_notebook.html

Each volume collects 3 of the books, and sells for $12.95.

The Oakland Ham Radio Outlet carries them, as well as Getting Started in Electronics, which is my favorite electronics primer.

Ham Radio Outlet has a dozen locations around the USA: http://www.hamradio.com/
