Handyman Pocket Reference 2001

Geared more for carpentry than for everything, this book is not as much like a hitchhikers guide to the universe as the pocket and Desk references that it was gleaned from.

Just say how big wood is.

A la lecture du livre, les mesures sont impériales ce qui veut ire que c'est quand même à destination des clients anglo-saxons. Peu ou pas utilisables pour nous autres qui travaillons en métrique...

"Handyman In-Your-Pocket" has proven to be an invaluable companion for my various DIY projects. This compact book packs a punch with its wealth of information, making it a great reference tool that I find myself reaching for repeatedly. What I really like is how this book covers a broad range of topics. Whether I'm dealing with electrical work, plumbing, or basic carpentry, the clear and concise instructions are easy to follow. It’s impressive how much useful content is crammed into such a small package, making it easy to carry around and consult as needed. The tips and tricks provided throughout the book have been particularly helpful. They often save me time and prevent potential mistakes, which is crucial when working on DIY projects. The illustrations and diagrams are clear, aiding my understanding of more complex tasks. One minor downside is that the book could benefit from a more detailed index to quickly find specific topics. However, the organized layout helps mitigate this issue, allowing me to navigate through the content without much trouble. In essence, this book is a fantastic resource for anyone tackling home improvement projects. It has become a staple in my toolkit, and I would highly recommend it to fellow DIYers looking for a reliable and portable reference guide.

Book contains a ton of reference charts to give information on topics like insulation, load values, and strength of various bolts, nails, and fasteners. No code information at all, just actual strength tables based on types of construction. Still an amazing resource to have with you while planning a build!

Prodotto valido e ad un prezzo veramente buono. Unico neo: sarebbe ora che venisse tradotto anche in altre lingue vista la sua diffusione
