Very good and understandable charts and diagrams, for the small stuff we do with the drillpress and lathe here it is a weatlh of knowlege
Pros
Good size, does not feal like it will fall apart soon, all the info I was hoping for and more.

I understand why the Spiral spine was chosen but in my experiance it is the first thing that tears the pages so they fall out

Hi Fredrik, The pages are tear proof so don't expect them to tear off the spine anytime soon! Thank you for your review.

Would like to see cutting speed chart, based on material, type cutter for turning, milling and reaming, for carbide and HSS. The metal binder, took mine to the office supply store and had the binder replaced for spiral binding.

Contains almost everything needed in a handy size

Size and ring binding

The binder punching caused many pages to be almost glued together so took ages to separate them without tearing.
