In the early 1890s; Humphrey Barker Chamberlin installed a lifeline to his namesake suburb west of the city. A trolley connected to Arlington Heights Boulevard at the Trinity River�s Clear Fork and chugged across prairie land to reach Chamberlin Arlington Heights. Camp Bowie; a soldiers� city; sprawled over both sides of the road from 1917 until 1919. At the Great War�s end; the stretch west of present-day University Drive became the commemorative Camp Bowie Boulevard. The 1920s brought twin ribbons of cordovan-colored brick pavement; the prestige of inclusion in the Bankhead Highway network; and westering developers of another elite village: Ridglea. Midway through the Great Depression; the Will Rogers complex arose on a farm tract; visible from the thoroughfare; to host Texas Centennial celebrations and a special livestock exposition. Museums began claiming adjacent space in the 1950s. By the second decade of the 21st century; Camp Bowie Boulevard bisected a built environment both modern and historic.

Does what it says on the coverBy Nathan ParkerShows you what you need to know to design and construct high-quality stop-motion armatures using a mill and other machinists tools. I have not yet tried to make one; but I feel confident that I can following the instructions included here.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Great; detailed look into machining stop-motion armaturesBy Christopher D KnoxThis book explains how to machine the most common joints. Detailed instructions accompany shop drawings for each joint type. The author also covers advanced universal joints. The book assumes you have access to a lathe and mill. I believe the author uses Sherline equipment to demonstrate his work. Recommended for anyone who is interested in creating professional-quality armatures and also wants to learn machining basics.48 of 49 people found the following review helpful. Buy used; not new!By K. J. BrettFirst Ill state that as a shop manual the information contained within this book is great and indispenable. The author cleary describes the processes and tools needed to build stop motion armatures. What is disappointing is the quality of the book itself. I have a few books for which I have paid fifty dollars for (The Illusion of Life: Disney Animation; Ray Harryhausen: An Animated Life; Industrial Light and Magic: The Art of Special Effects) and I have never had buyers remorse. The same cannot be said here. The cover belies the interior quality. This book is approximately one quarter inch thick with poor quality paper stock which I can only describe as better than a childs coloring book. All of the photographs are black and white. Many are extremely grainy with contrast that is too high and resolution so poor that it is hard to see what is being described accurately (See figures 2-10; 3-4; 3-5; 3-10; 4-9; 4-10; 4-13 as examples). Not what I expected at this price point. The same information also applies to Stop-Motion Puppet Sculpting. I strongly suggest you either buy used or take what I have written into consideration before purchasing new.
