Book Reviews of Welder's Handbook : A Complete Guide to Mig, Tig, Arc & Oxyacetylene Welding (Hp1264)
Book Review: Good coverage of welding, but I have some concerns.
Summary: 3 Stars
Overall, the book was very informative and comprehensive on melting points and welding methods. I *do* have a problem with 2 points in the book. On page 65,the author mentions squirting WD-40 into the relief hole in a welded tube before riveting or WELDING it shut. WD-40 is a flammable liquid on it's own, in the presence of pure oxygen, it would burn violently. On the next page, the author shows a torch hanger to hang the torch "so you won't have to shut it off and relight each time you stop to adjust or setup your weld." While this may seem like a time saver, is it really worth it when your life could be ended should that torch fall out of the hanger and land on your hoses? With the exception of these two concerns, the book was well written and informative to the new welder.
