Summary: The Engineer's Bible
Comment: I bought my first copy of Machinery's Handbook as a drafter in 1968. In the thirty-one years since then, I've grown thru the designer-to-engineer curve and the editors have done much to augment and expand the content and scope of this book. The Handbook is still the single most important - nay, vital - text at my engineering workstation. Now that the text is available in electronic (CD-ROM) format, I impatiently await the arrival of my copy - I just love computers, don't you? Now I'll be able to grab all that information without even reaching for the shelf! Guess I'll have to find some other exercise for my pects, lats, triceps...

Summary: Frequently referred to as the Machinists Bible.
Comment: The Machinery's Handbook has been frequently referred to as the Machinists Bible for as long as I can remember. It contains an incredible wealth of information that everyone in the mechanical trades will immediately appreciate.
Detailed information about practically any mechanical problem, ranging from the basic lever and wheel, right through to rapid prototyping. At this point I can honestly say, that I have always found the information I needed in less than 4 minutes. Exact, detailed information.
The only area that I found the book lacking in, is the exclusion of European standards. For instance DIN reference numbers, but as the world is heading toward ISO9000 the old reference numbers are becoming obsolete in any case.
It's price of $80.00 may seem steep, but in comparison to the other works out there, it is reasonable. All in all, if you work in the mechanical trades, you cannot afford to pass up this book.

Summary: Great for School and Work....
Comment: I have been out of school now for 5+ years... I had to share only 3 Machinery's Handbooks with my class of 30 at LTI... Then when I got out on the job market, I found that most places will not supply you with one, and you almost always need one in the engineering feald, weather it is Mechanical or Arch... (I have worked with both!). So this November (2003), I saved up for one, since I am always borrowing one at work from coworkers... So now I have the newest one in our office at Firestone Industrial Products Co.. Makes me feel good that I have the most up to date one... And now everone is barrowing from me!
It is easy to find what you are looking for, and it is made to last! I have the hard cover 26th edition, and I LOVE it! It is a MUST for people planning on being an Engineer and or CAD Engineer. Since they don't have this built into any Drawing program as of yet. (i.e... CAD/Auto CAD)... Also good for Work or School! A Must! And Hint Hint, you can use it on your taxes as a School or Work Expense, So you get some money back on it! (About $25 back on taxes for it.) So well worth the money!
