Great reference guide and educational booklet for all things metal workshop
Concise and to-the-point
Pros
Has all the information you need to either get the job done, or give you direction to do more research
Cons
It would be nice to have access to an electronic version which is much easier to search using keywords. I do understand that there are issues around copyright /abuse - but for those of us that have the laptop open constantly looking at references, it would be amazing!

Has been extremely helpful both in classes and in the industry and in person projects
Cons
- The QR code for this review does not work
- the back page tends to fall off due to how it is bound

Great pocket-reference for engineering professionals or machinists. I never come to work without it.

Tons of easy-to-navigate information and reference charts.

Included adhesive section tabs become brittle and break. Wire book spine can crush and has begun to open up allowing pages to come unbound. Bug was laminated into one of the pages.
