Indispensable workshop reference

June 7, 2017 By: Denis Pleic, Advisum (Varazdin, Croatia)

Comments
Excellent reference for the workshop, offering a wealth of handy information - both for beginners and the pros

Pros
Well designed, high quality paper, handy size, spiral bound (stays open on the desk), well thought out

Cons
As others mentioned, perhaps quick access tabs or something similar might make it easier to find sections you need quickly. Also, a hex (Allen) key chart for appropriate socket head screws/bolts might be useful (similar to spanner selection chart).
 

Very Handy

June 6, 2017 By: Jordan (Nagambie , Australia)

Comments
Very handy reference book, I use it more often than I thought I would. Always keep it in the glovebox of my work van.

Pros
Easy to read and understand

Cons
Would be nice to have a section on brazing and welding (rods, fluxes etc)
 

Life Easier

June 5, 2017 By: Robert Gibson (Hamilton , New Zealand)

Comments
Very handy to have all the knowledge at you hands and can stay in your pocket

Pros
Very nice that the book has been carefully designed to be you in the dirty workshop and out in the field, that the pages are glare, grease, and tear proof. Big thumbs up.

Cons
Takes a little bit of time to find what you need, maybe some cut out tabs on the edge of the pages to mark out key sections of the book for quick access
 

Great product

June 2, 2017 By: Max (Geelong, Australia)

Comments
Excellent!!

Pros
Excellent resource! As a first year apprentice mechanical fitter I have found the content invaluable.

Cons
Unfortunately, if you don't know what you're looking for, the book is extremely hard to navigate! The index is all over the place, same content in an alphabetically categorized order would be ideal!

Not having to remember or searching in many places for regularly used information
