I’ve had this book since I was an apprentice in the early 80’s. Been a very handy resource.
Pros
Robust construction and convenient to throw in the tool box or drawer.
Cons
Hasn’t got all the information I might like to have, in particular welding, but I guess it would be encyclopaedic size if it had everything.

Charts

I bought this book for drill speeds and drill/tapping size.
So pleased I get a free taping chart.
Thanks. However I only found that page at the back of the book with that info by accident while looking for contact details, so I could write and ask for permission to get a PDF or other printable copy of the drill speed chart and the tapping size chart so I could print and laminate to put on the wall of my new workshop.
I have been unable to find a printable drill speed chart anywhere including online.
So could I get the PDF of page 56
Great data and quick reference

The pages are coated so my dirty hands won't mess them up. A wet cloth cleans them and they dry perfect.

Compact

I am not an engineer, but do work which requires the relevant information contained in these books, so I've purchased one pocket size as well as a giant print.
Pros
Excellent Layout and Format, easy to understand, comprehensive in detail.
Cons
None that are relevant

A must have guide, I often having young blokes coming in to my work to purchase a copy usually referred to by their old colleagues.
Decided to grab one myself to see for myself and am stunned at the level of practical information within such a small book.

Comments
I own the Machinery's handbook and thought any other reference material would be unnecessary, I was wrong there is so much information in this and very elaborate pictures to help grasp the concepts
Pros
pictures to help guide you, Highly detailed explanations on concepts like tap measurements and how to find what you are looking for.
Cons
the page tab requires that we have a QR scanner on our phone, I don't have one so I have no way to reference the material.
