Summary: A Professional Guide to The Machine Shop
Review: How many books do you want to buy that are around $100. each? The answer is not too many and if you do buy you want something of value that will last. You do not want five books on all different aspects of the metal cutting. Now we have new version with large print.Here is one book that is comprehensive covering most major subjects including machines, tools, strength of materials, fasteners, set ups, cutters, cutting speeds, measurement. introduction to CAD, etc but all at a professional level with many reference tables. It is a well made book with a nice cover that stands up to a shop environment. It has a good tab system plus excellent index. You can quickly locate the right information. The book will probably have a 10-20 year shelf life. I run a small shop that includes Bridgeport type mills, lathes, boring machines, welding, etc. We have a typical small shop and we work with stainless steel and aluminum mainly as other shops but we also do exotic nickel alloys, ceramics, and copper, etc. I must consult this book weekly. It is proven itself to be useful. In almost every case in the past it has provided the needed guidance or some critrical number such as a screw strength when needed. Five stars, you cannot go wrong.

Review: This book is easier on the eyes thanks to the larger print and builds bigger muscles due to its larger size! As usual this book has all the necessary info to get my mechanical engineering design tasks complete only it's improved.
