 This book is outdated, not enough clear colored pictures. March 17, 2010

This book is outdated, not enough clear ( colored ) pictures.
Good, quality clear pictures are a must for hands-on trade, skill and craft books.
A Lot of the information in this book you can find on the internet for free.
Don't waste your money on this book.
If you want to learn how to do something, this book might help, if you don't know what a welder or a grinder is.
 Great, well-rounded metal fabrication book. September 8, 2009

Ron Fournier's Metal Fabricator's Handbook is one of the items a hobbyist fabricator should have on their bookshelf. The book's sturdy binding even lends itself well to sitting on the workbench, where some of my favorite machining and fabrication books end up, to be thumbed through with dirty hands.
The Handbook starts off with a pretty detailed chapter on handtools, paying particularly good attention to the vast array of hammers, mallets, dollys and spoons that made even a seasoned fabricator like me say "hunh, so that's what it's for" to a couple things. After handtools, the book goes into power tools, forming tools such as English wheels, brakes and shot bags, then jumps into the use of it all through detailed automotive projects the author has done. Some of the projects are definitely a bit dated, but the techniques are what's important.
Overall the Metal Fabricator's Handbook is a well written, informative part of a hot rodder's library.

I never saw someone doing this job before, so, I could'nt understand all the procedures the author explained. The fotos are dark and hard to see. I will try another one.
How To vs. Can Do March 16, 2006

My purpose for ordering this book was to gain the knowledge of how to do this type of work. While the "how to" is limited, the advantage to me is to learn what can be done and this book covers this well. Overall, I am pleased that I ordered it.
The delivery time was short and the condition of the book was excellent.
Thanks;
Dennis Osborn
