[Dick Linn]

Lee,

That's an ambitious project and a good one. Perhaps it could be broken down into topics/chapters by material and you could solicit input here on one topic at a time. A good outline of the desired content would help -

available forms & cost
strength/weight
stiffness
workability
alloys and variants
forming/machining/welding/gluing
sources
links to application notes & technical data
tips & techniques
application examples
