This is the final engineering crossword puzzle of 2014, that is to say the 52nd of the year. I have created more
than 500 crossword puzzles, each using a custom-built library of words and clues specific to engineering, science,
mathematics, etc. - no numbnut celebrity names, clothing articles, or mountains on the continent of Africa. Thanks,
fellow cruciverbalists, for
another year of participation. Don't forget to print out an extra copy to leave in the John for your fellow indisposed
workmate to pass time with.
