J. B. Wood Knihy

Detailed photos show step-by-step disassembly of more than 60 revolvers and 130 variants Reassembly tips Guns, especially handguns, have always been a part of J.B. Wood's life; he began working as a gunsmith over 50 years ago. Fortunately, Wood has been able to combine his mechanical talents with writing about them - which he's been doing since 1962, having more than 1,000 articles published in Gun Digest, Guns Illustrated and in most of the monthly gun magazines. In 1977-1978 he authored a two-book series for DBI Books, Troubleshooting Your Handgun and Troubleshooting Your Rifle and Shotgun . From 1979 to 1981, Wood wrote and photographed the original six-part Firearms Assembly/Disassembly series, a monumental task that turned out to be the best reference on the subject ever printed. Because he is so well briefed on firearms in general, Wood is considered an international authority and highly regarded firearms consultant, having done mechanical design and redesign work for domestic and foreign arms makers. Currently he is a writer and firearms consultant and lives in rural Kentucky.

Industry after industry is becoming technology driven as software rapidly eats the world. As it spreads, so do complexity and opportunity. There are clear signs that the traditional B2B business model designed 125 years ago as a simple make, sell, ship approach for early manufacturing companies is no longer capable of delivering the full potential of high-tech and near-tech solutions. B4B seeks to frame what is possible in an age where suppliers are connected to their customers in real time. The traditional world of B2B was designed to sell things to customers, whereas the new B4B model will be about delivering outcomes for customers. It's a whole new ballgame. Using powerful models and specific examples, B4B envisions a next-generation tech industry where suppliers play an active, ongoing role in helping business customers achieve unparalleled value from their technology investments.
