Awesome reference for the amateur home machinists

March 10, 2025 By: Rich Colvin (Marysville, United States)

Comments
I use this book quite often for so many tasks. It’s easy to use and easier to use than many other machinists manuals.

Pros
Small, easy to use, fast to find what I’m seeking. I also like how the pages are thick and the manual lies flat.

Cons
Tables could use alternative colors to make following a line across the table

Amazing pocket reference

February 26, 2025 By: Zakk Tustin (Chifley , Australia)

Comments
Awesome reference book for workshop use as well as answering quick questions on the fly and helping with design considerations. I'd honestly recommend it to anyone that is involved in any engineering practice or even just a home hobbyist.

Pros
It gives you relevant and up to date information as well as covers legacy threads that you occasionally encounter. It's all layed out in an easy to read format, which is handy if you're caffeine deprived.

Cons
The pages do come stuck together, due to the hole punching for the spiral bind.

It would also be nice to have a little info on UNS threads, a little more on countersinks and to have all of the maths references together.

Can't get enough!

February 15, 2025 By: Jordan Wormuth (Sussex, United States)

Comments
This book is a must have for anyone.

Pros
Pages are indestructible, lays flat on a table, cannot be smudged.

Cons
Other people will want to borrow it. Personally I like the thinner covers on the smaller text vs the thick "hardcover" style of the large text print.

January 30, 2025 By: David D. (Rayville, United States)
