Great pocket-reference for engineering professionals or machinists. I never come to work without it.
Pros
Tons of easy-to-navigate information and reference charts.
Cons
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.
