Hi Folks, "The Boy Electrician" by Simms. first published in the 20's and many new editions, all sorts of things that can be made from scratch.
A couple of books by Ballhatchet "Wireless Apparatus Making", again making from scratch.
There was also a range of early model engineer books on Electricity and Radio.

There are plenty of other similar titles; one of our own forum members, from the northwest has made some exhibition quality radios fro scratch built parts.
