Customer Reviews

Decidedly core knowledge

I have been trying to get answers about beveling off of the Internet for months, and I found a glass wall between people in the know and people who want to know. Anything about beveling assumed you knew what you were talking about. This book is answering all of my questions and giving me what I need to make informed decisions. The book was first written three decades ago. Most of the information is still extremely applicable. The index in the back has been updated to reflect current industry leaders. I do still feel I need to find more information about technological advancements in recent decades.
