Here is something that is fun. Google books has old magazines like Popular Mechanics scanned and searchable. I was raised on these and it is a walk down memory lane for me to read them.

Popular Mechanics - Google Books

The amazing thing for me is how much stuff cost back then. A circular saw was $75 and a war surplus 3000 watt generator was $395.

In 2008 dollars that would be $634 and $3496, respectively. :eek:
