  • Very Good!

    shows what gears work together and how to make the build strong, pictures are great. I don't have any cons with this book. It was written well, and shows the different types of pins, bushes, joints, axles, pulleys, etc, It shows the mechanics of how things work so its a great read and I plan to buy another one.
