I found this PDF in my searches, and thought I'd share the link. It is incredibly detailed, and the most informative free text I have found on the subject.

That was a really good, comprehensive write-up. They cover everything very well. Nice find.

Glad you guys liked that PDF.

I just checked out the one DrCrash posted. Good stuff, I recommend everyone get that one too.

Also, I'd recommend saving a local copy of these files to your pc, so if the link ever breaks, it'll still be available.

happy forming
