All I need in one place

For many years, I've needed to get this book or that chart or the other reference to be able to teach engineering to my high school students.
I bought this book to see if it could provide everything I needed in one place and it absolutely has.
Pros
The best bit is the self-adhesive tabs. I can find what I need quickly and I've got a few set up for my own use for things I know I'll need
Cons
I wish I had a copy for everyone in the class!

Comments
Most useful tool in the shop!
Pros
I love that i can just wipe down this book and how quick it is to find what you need and find all conversations in seconds. Going to have to get a pocket sized one so always have one on hand, I reckon the other books would be just as helpful in there respective fields.
Cons
Not buying it sooner! Cannot fault this book!
