Watch out for the rip off.
The instructors edition is 27 pages and not 272 pages.
The adds will say "paper back 2.6 ounces"

The 27 page rip off edition weighs 2.6 ounces.

When I complained about the rip off, they said, "When the returned item(s) are received and processed, we will issue a refund
to the credit card number submitted with this order for the product price of
the returned item(s), not including the shipping and handling."

I am just going to chuck the instructor's edition in the trash and chalk it up to internet rip off.



1 out of 5 stars Instructors edition is a waste of money   July 20, 2004

THe instructors edition is not even a book. It is some sort of supplement to the actual text....completely useless...save your money.


4 out of 5 stars A Little Bit Technical   March 20, 2001

Being a weldor as a hobby, I found this book to be more in depth than I initially anticipated. It was great to find out how my machine works and learn what has caused some of my past failures. I think this book is great for metalurgical references for my applications. Being a hobbiest I didn't really need to know about the industrial aspects or how to read specs. But I guess even unused information isn't bad to have. Its hard to acquire this knowledge on the side.


3 out of 5 stars It's Wolfram!   July 20, 2000

I don't hold with this new fangled "tungsten." In my day, it was wolfram, and by Gar we loved it! Of course, in my day we dug holes for fun, so perhaps I shouldn't talk. I particularly liked the bit about copper ablation - well done in most aspects. And for the prospective wolfram arc welder, the section on weld repair is one of a kind. You don't find such succinct explanations of weld repair anymore.


4 out of 5 stars Easy but comprehensive   February 2, 2000

Excellent for reference as well as for the beginner. Provides specific, in depth information while still practical. Well illustrated. Concise. However, not thorough enough for the advanced weldor interested in complete discussion of metallurgy and other principles.
