Great beginners book for die making

I have minimal machining experience, mostly self taught, and this book opens up the process of creating a die extremely well. I have only gotten through a few chapters but the illustrations are very good, the text is easy to follow and clear. Great book, from my admittedly novice point of view... but I have learned a lot.. and thats the point of this book.

Excellent book on die design

A truly authoritative reference on die design in existence today. A detailed and technical yet easy to understand contents make this book a precious reference for every die designer and die makers. 'Chapter 5: Fourteen Steps To Design A Die' provides excellent yet fundamental details towards die design. There is definitely no regret from buying this book.

Very good book

Great book for beginners. This book is essential material if you want to go in this field and learn about Die Design. I would definitely recommend it as a starter. Very good indeed!

Extremely Useful.

I highly recommend this book to anyone planning to go into die design. It is extremely thorough and up to date. More importantly, it not only explains how a die works but it also helps in the designing process. It takes you through a step by step process and each chapter is dedicated to a part of the die i.e., the punch, the die, the stripper plate, pilots, types of die processes, die buttons, front and back rails, etc. For those already in the field, it helps to have this book handy.

an excellent book for engineers or technicians with no experience in die design. This sets you up for a new and another dimension in the world of tool and dies. It is worth having one in the shelf.
