March 7, 2021 By: Bob Trumbly, One Off Fabrication (Littleton, United States)

Excellent resource for handy charts, tables, formulas specific to machine shop.

Cons
Can't think of a thing.

Useful Resource

February 16, 2021 By: MC Black (Dr.) , Hardknott Services (Ware , United Kingdom)

Comments
Nice solid book with lots of useful information

Pros
Oil-proof pages, opends flat, rounded corners

Cons
It would be better if the covers extended to the width of the tabs when affixed - otherwise the are damaged when put into and out of pocket; it would be useful if Tapping Drill Sizes were provided for different percentages of engagement; it would be helpful to have an Alphabetical Index as well as the Table of Contents.
 

A staggering amount of useful info!

February 16, 2021 By: Pete Fowler (Whistler, Canada)

Comments
Amazing amount of info, more than I expected. I hope I’ll use it all!

Pros
Compact and will save looking online. Bookmarks will be handy

Cons
Very small. Almost too small for very speedy looking up. But I’ll get to know it and get faster at finding info in there.
