For this reason, all mechanicians realize that it is better for every mechanism not to lie idle, but to be used considerably, though, of course, without being forced unduly.

Jack hearing some of this talk, which he half understood, was convulsed in silent laughter over the remarkable ideas that seemed to possess the minds of those French mechanicians and hostlers.

Several of our younger set with special sporting proclivities have taken up aerial joy-riding since the war, so that there is always a group of mechanicians and hangers-on around the field.
Mechanicians will understand me readily and perhaps be able to add many improvements.
The two mechanicians quickly arrived, the hanger was unlocked and opened so as to permit the exit of the ship.
Every night, after the mechanicians had spent the day working over it, the machine would go sailing off the field, purring and humming and flying smoothly and evenly.

Aviation Meet Each team is made up of two mechanicians and four aviators.
Equal pieces of string should be used, a loop having been tied in each end through which the mechanicians may slip their fingers for the purpose of holding the string.
Already the mechanicians were bringing out the machines and lining them up in front of the hangars, in preparation for the morning work, which began immediately after appel.
I'll see yourmechanicians about fitting your machines for rockets.
The mechanicians were getting the motors en route, arming the machine guns, and giving a final polish to the glass of the wind-shields.
While the mechanicianswere grooming this one, and replenishing the fuel-tanks, Drew and I examined it line by line, talking in low tones which seemed fitting in so splendid a presence.
It was perfectly within the power of mechanicians and mathematicians so experienced as they undoubtedly were--the pyramid attests so much--to measure with considerable accuracy the length of a degree of latitude.
Such skilful mechanicians as the builders of the pyramid could have obtained a closer approximation still by mere measurement.
His article is as follows: Very few young mechanicians escape being seduced into an attempt to produce a perpetual movement, by making gravitation counteract itself.
In fact, I should say he is one of those same mechanicians of whom I spoke, in whose lives literature will have no place, and the desire for a private harem supplant the grande passion.
This leads me to imagine that in the future there will be a vast mass of highly trained mechanicians to whom literature will be non-existent, but whose acquaintance with written technics will be enormous.
We found Charles Norton, the inventor, anxiously at work with his mechanicians in the big temporary shed that had been accorded him, and was dignified with the name of hangar.
The men had been in a sort of panic; Humphrey could not be found, and the only reason, I think, why the two mechanicians stayed was because something was due them on their pay.
As Norton directed, the mechanicians wheeled the aeroplane out on the field in front of the shed.
From this time forward the minds of many mechanicians were earnestly at work on this problem--the raising of water by aid of steam.
Mechanicians had succeeded in making steam-boilers capable of sustaining any desired or any useful pressure, and Papin had shown how to make them comparatively safe by the attachment of the safety-valve.
It is a pity that those skilfulmechanicians do not try to apply their knowledge to the improvement of musical instruments, rather than to puerilities of this sort.
I looked mine over with a new feeling of importance and gave orders to my mechanicians for the mere satisfaction of being able to.
For many years scientific mechanicians and mathematicians have told us that the navigation of the air was quite possible.
But there are limits both to what mechanicians can do without principles of mechanics, and to what thinkers can do without principles of logic.
Modern mechaniciansagree that such a performance would have been a physical impossibility, even had Robert-Houdin been the expert mechanician he pictured himself.
Years were spent in perfecting the various automata, and none of them have been equalled or even approached by later mechanicians and inventors.
If there be nothing difficult in the construction of these machines, the French mechanicians ought to be ashamed of forcing their countrymen to seek the sole supply of them in England; for the principal paper works in France, as those of MM.
Ingenious mechanicians find themselves better rewarded by directing their talents to the self-acting machinery of modern manufactures.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "mechanicians" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
