    Shigley's? Marks’ ?

    for MD depth the ashrae book is probably a waste, but you may get to open it once or twice in the morning. I got much more mileage out of the charts than the fundamentals book. I agree with the others on shigley being very useful in the MD depth, make sure you spend some time using it to study...

    6 Minute solutions?

    I never did any of the 6 min books... so I can't really address that, I can say that the NCEES practice test is very realistic in terms of difficulty.

    or as it will forever be known: "The Begining Of The End" ...so which was a better show going through the turbine, the drum of marshmallow crème, or VTE's entire shoe collection?

    ft-lbm vs ft-lbf

    it may be, but it is still important to track your units, switching freely between f and m can cause confusion in some cases.

    Air port hangars

    yeah... and in retrospect, we should have known that letting the Blue Angles in on the action was a bad idea... but man, what a night!

    ft-lbm vs ft-lbf

    ^me too, I learned everything in SI... then I got a job and had to get uesd to doing it all in American :) units.

    ft-lbm vs ft-lbf

    power = force x velocity... so lbf is correct... of course, we are on earth, so g ~ gc; thus lbm(g/gc) ~ lbf... but you certaintly need to keep track of your units, and the book not showing this step is poor form.

    When to use what failure theory for MD?

    I'm going to go with yes on this one... The thing that I always had to remind myself on the exam was that they love to give too much information in the questions... don't over think it, and dont be afraid to NOT use some of the numbers provided.
