Quality in a Convenient Form-factor

Contains about as much information on fasteners as one could hope to cram into a single pocket. Collects a lot of information on various fasteners, and saves me a significant amount of time hunting down the information (as well as pictures so I can show my techs what they're looking for).
Pros
Easily portable, includes a reasonably useful thread pitch identification gauge, includes references to relevant standards as well as descriptions in layman's terms
Cons
Not a great reference for aerospace work since it doesn't pull information from military specs and other similar sources used in that field. Granted, there isn't any room to squeeze that in. Information on mil spec fasteners and various aerospace and military spec treatments and manufacturing techniques could probably fill an entire black book by itself, though.
Excellent addition to my collection
