The Engineers Black Book is so much quicker and easier to use than the Machinists Handbook. Info that used to take several minutes thumbing through the handbook, now takes several seconds using the EBB. Love the lay flat design and the coated pages.
Pros
Lay flat design, coated pages, logical layout
Cons
None

I really enjoy the book, it is a really good companion for the young machinist who needs a trusty reference
Pros
Love the paper quality, the USA edition has both metric and imperial measurements (very handy)... The drill gage seems fine quality
Cons
Really nothing bad... I'd like a segment on measuring techniques but that could be en entire book so...

Don't bother going into the machine shop without it. If you have a spanner in one hand, then you better have this in the other.
Pros
It is a pocket sized engineering encyclopaedia! My day ALWAYS starts the same...safety glasses, ear plugs, BLACK BOOK...or my day doesn't start!
Cons
It has only been around for 15 years...
