Derrick:
Do you mean the "Machinery's Handbook" published by Industrial Press, the small format 17,000 page reference book that comes as standard equipment with a toolmaker's apprenticeship?
I believe the current edition is #28. I have a 17th (1966) and a 22nd (1984) hanging around the shop. Both serve just fine as a shop referrence. The newer editions have information on CNC machining and state of the art metalurgy and such, but I have never used one.
What do you have in mind?
Glenn
