Engineers Black Book 3rd Edition (inch)

Large print, easy to read, love the tabs

Not a big fan on putting the tab

The engineers black book is awesome and a must for anyone who does any kind of fabrication, machining or technical work whatever the field.

It is compact and portable and full of very useful information that is extremely well laid out and easy to find with clear text and well defined shading. (very good for aging eyes)

The only con was that the 3rd edition version did not include the drill sharpening gage

Great book with lots of good info in one easy to get to spot, easy to follow for the most part also

Lots of helpful charts and good illustration throughout the book, make working in the field easier and quicker.

Could maybe have one page with illustration on hss cutting tool rake angles

Great figures for explaining the burrs and the degrees to the next generation in the shop.

Like the included tabs.

This book lays flat, so stays open where you want it. Valuable information now in one place and easy to find.

The large workbench edition makes it easier to read, quality paper easy to keep clean.

I bought the Engineers Black Book 3rd Edition (INCH) ... Large Workbench Edition. 234 total pages. Comes with plastic pre-labeled and blank page tabs that you can use to easily locate book sections, Spiral bound, plastic coated cover and pages. Wonderful book.

Spiral bound so it lays flat
Plasticized heavy cover and pages to resist dirty fingers and liquids.
Most conversion charts, threading info, and tables needed for everyday machining.
Contains best information on the various insert cutters I know of.
This is the INCH 3rd Edition. Yes!
Book construction is simply top notch. This is manual you need.

Not inexpensive, but for what you get, a very fair price.

Great little book, use it on almost every job!

Has all the data needed to see any job through ranging from machining to fitting

None

Amazing, I use this book every day teaching high school students

Awesome for refrences and tips for the kids

Nothing, i use this across multiple subject areas and year levels

This book is very useful in everyday work.

Nice size that fits in your pocket.
Contains everything you need daily so you don't have to waste time searching in big handbooks.
The drill sharpening guide you get with the book is a big pro!

A tad too small sized text for me.

Very usefull

Daily needs in one book

Bookmarks are vulnerable in daily use

I have both regular size and large print; I really like the large print

paper quality,larger print for old guy;use it every day

would like to see index right after contents

Perfect in the late format

Mine is used ALL day usually for the conversions most

Small format is almost too small to read conversion charrs

Great book, within 5 minutes it has solved some conversion questions I had

Great layout and the colour selection is not overpowering so it’s easy to read.

I’m getting old and need glasses to read the font.

Despite the breadth and depth I find this to be a great alternative to the MHB.

Colored charts, quality paper, spiral binding and just enough info for most commonly referenced data.

Has errors in some areas
No more free drill gauge included :(
At least a bookmark with some handy table/data would be nice
Pricey for the amount of info

Great book
