Alan Partridge has been working on a translation into English of Prof Spindler's treatise on mechanics with reference to the Meccano System.
This is a very large work and Alan is still steadily ploughing through it. So far it has taken him about 5 years!
In order to get the technical meanings right he got Willy Dewulf to help with exact meanings for parts and common Meccano technical terms.
It is by no means complete and by posting Alan's list on the website the ISM invites other Meccanomen to assist Alan with his job.
The current lexicon includes lists in French, English, Italian and German.
The German translation has been added recently and was supplied by Frank W. Weber
Other languages are very welcome.
If you want to help to developpe this Lexicon the ISM invites you to send your contributions to the webmaster who will convey all received information to Alan Partridge.

It's a zip-file (about 43K) containing an .xls and .txt file.
