Just received my copy. Looks a really useful data resource, already used the circlip section that saved me going back to the house and searching on google.

Fits in the pocket so can be with you at all times.

Some information like the table of sines and conversion factors I will never use as I have a calculator.

Fantastic resource with loads of useful information
Pros
Easy to find information
Cons
Could you add JIS bolt identification and mechanical properties in a future edition? JIS grades goes from 4 to 9 and it would be handy to have a cross reference to metric classes.

I haven't had my Machinery's Handbook out since I got the Engineers Black Book. Most of my work as a hobbyist is basic and the Black Book is really handy. Along with the usual reference data, I find the carbide holder and insert tables very valuable, especially the visual identification of insert shapes.
Pros
Just about everything! It is a nice size to keep in one of your tool box drawers. The pages are sturdy (no dog ears yet) and they resist oil and grease stains
Cons
I can't think of any.

I use this almost every day. It's comprehensive yet compact. Much more user friendly than other larger publications. I'd like to see G and M codes included and maybe dimensions for common types of bearings.
Pros
Spiral bound, robust, comprehensive
Cons
Nothing
