Love the paper, spiral binding, and colors! Has even more information about machining than I expected.
Pros
Longtime Machinery Handbook user but this book feels so much more durable and convenient.
Cons
Not really a con...more of a suggestion. As a self taught engineer/designer/maker I would love a book that has a bit of the electrical, fasteners, threads, and machining all in one small book. A "Makers" book....doesn't have to be too in depth just cover the standard info required/encountered when prototyping projects (i.e. the places I have tabbed in my Machinery Handbook for years).

Most of the information you'll need in one handy pocket guide
Pros
Lots of handy information, fantastic

None other than it would be great if u could increase the font size by at least 1 point, for aging eyes. That way I dont need to scramble round looking for reading glasses

Good product
Pros
Insanely helpful, book is small but loaded with useful information. Use this multiple times weekly and it was worth the money. Useful drill point gage inclided as well. Small and fits right in your pocket.
Cons
Books backing and cover are somewhat flimsy and fall off the coils
AMAZING!
