Customer Reviews

Reference Book I will use for a long time to Come!

This particular book is the text in the welding courses I have been taking this year. I wanted my own copy since the school does not let the books leave the classroom. I was impressed with the book already and wanted one of my own and found it here in the used section. Got the book for about half the price of a new one and the one I got looks like it was never opened. I have learned a lot from this book and will keep it as a reference as I progress to my welding projects. I highly recommend this book to anyone that wants to learn about welding or already knows how to weld but needs a reference book. We can't all keep the entire contents of this book in our heads. When memory fails, it's in this book. About the only thing that isn't covered in here is underwater welding procedures.

Great book!

This is one of the best books about welding processes. It contains very good ilustrations and is very well organized. Text uses very simple language. Very helpful. Great! Great!

GREAT BOOK

This book is a must for any welder. It is filled with info. and the price is unbeatable!

Excellent Reference Manual

This isn't the kind of book you give a quick read. It is more like a class text or reference book if you are welding now. I love it and have already gotten good use from it.

An Excellent, well-written and well organized text

I have used an earlier edition and this edition in self-study of welding technology and as an aid in the development of my welding skills necessary for certifications. The text is exceptionally well organized and thorough. The material is comprehensive in explaining not only about the various welding technologies, but also in presenting the proper techniques and practices of welding, including great color pictures showing both good and bad practices. Every aspect of the welder's skill set is covered. Additionally, there are comprehensive end-of-chapter review questions, an excellent glossary, and a useful index, which perhaps could be beefed up somewhat. All in all, this was a very readable, worthwhile addition to my metal trades library . My money was well spent.
