Love the book - central to my shop.

Lots of important data

Suggest adding commas to large numbers, e.g., 1,000,000 vs. 1000000. Also the section on Tolerances pg., 71 could use some clarification.

Great over all

Info on hand is really nice

wish the pages were laminated

I think it is a good book, I don't do a lot a machining and engineering but on projects that i am placed on it helps. Charts and such are great to have on hand. I am still a novice but have learned a good bit from this book.

-Great color
-Easy to read
-A lot of info for the guy on the fly

-None that I can think of

This is really helpful to have all of the info contained in the book in one source. From spanning sizes, cutting fluids, lubes, pitch diameters and so on it makes getting the job right very easy.

All of the info in a single source book. Nice size to store in tool cart, tool bag or in cargo pants pocket. Nice price also.

Great book for a pocket reference. Has a number of helpful charts and formulas in a much smaller book than a machinist handbook.

works great

Compact, concise reference material that I can use in the shop. Packed full of much of the info found in the engineers handbook in a more compact and usable form.

Size, type of binding, and the coated pages! Nice touch!

Haven't found any yet.

The most handy shop reference in my shop. The index isn't too subdivided and it gets me to my information fast.

Coated page covering and lay flat design.

None so far.

Its good and practical

contains almost everything

Expensive. The most expensive book I have every brought.

I have got pretty much all the workshop reference books available but the one I ALWAYS reach for first is the Black Book.

Well laid out, good use of colour, font size (just) large enough, great quality paper and coated. Ring-bound so lies flat. Rounded corners so doesn't get tatty. (Just) small enough for your shop coat pocket.

Would maybe like a larger version with larger font-size (maybe A5) - so not a pocket version. Some sort of edge markings or thumb cutouts for quick indexing. An electronic version would be useful sometimes - for searching!

Everthing you need

A very big little black book

Crammed with info

None

Great book, with tons of information. Even stuff that you wouldn't think to be in there.
Highly recommended

Easy to use

Would like a digital version for my phone

Love it, so much much information, easy to use

I like this book very much. The laminated, matt finish pages are really nice. Text could be little bigger, but i guess thats a limitation of pocket size books. Not too sure about the wire binding tough. Im thinking it has been selected to make the book easier to flip through and to stay open and flat on the table, and it works very well for those purposes. But it also makes it easier to damage the pages and binding, especially when carrying it in pockets as intented. Overall tough, a very positive experience!

Great to have all specifications in one book, especially knowing that it is accurate!

Everything

Bit expensive for what it is.

Handy to have everything you might need in one book

The price for such a small book is an issue

Fantastic point of reference
