Excellent reference material, especially the carbide and toolholder information.
Pros
Small concise reference book, replaces many other reference manuals.
Cons
I would like to see basic G and M codes i.e. G54, G17, M19 as someone who hasn't done ISO programming for a long time.
Also as newbie to CNC turning with a 'Y' axis maybe a graphical representation of the axis, i.e ZC showing edge, ZY showing a pocket in the orientation it would be machined on a billet.

Great, easy to follow. Love the plastic pages, especially as they don’t get destroyed from moisture/sweat in pocket while working. Although would like to see possibly adult physical dimensions including adult women and men. :-)

Nice improvement over the smaller version. I’d prefer even LARGER version, A4 or 8-1/2” x 11” format. I found putting the tabs on by myself was a pain but after I finished I realized I should have only put the tabs on those sections I most frequently use… so in reality letting the reader place their own tabs is a good thing. The book has an excellent table of contents as well as an excellent index so finding information has never been a problem for me. Thanks, nice book.
Pros
larger print, ring binding, excellent index and table of contents, user applied tabs
Cons
wish it was even larger, A4 or 8-1/2 x 11

Response from: Hi Impact Supplies
George, Thank you for your review.
We just released a new larger 10 inch high edition.
Yes, the Index tabs were intentionally included separately so the user could place them where they wish.
Excellent product

Excellent product full of information
Pros
The pocket size is very compact and well made
Cons
I wish the drill sharpening gauge came with all the versions of the book. Also it would be good to have a small print or marking to place the adhesive tabs.

It is a well structured book. The visual disposition of the concepts allows a better understanding of the different nomenclatures for bolts, nuts, mills, bits, taps, dies, inserts, toolholders, etc.
Pros
The information is accessed more quickly and is easier to understand than in other reference books.
Cons
Some pages (3 or 4) with some defect (slight blur of the print), but that does not make reading too difficult.
Love it
