The Makers Field Guide: Master Maker Edition (Companion PDF)

Become a true master with the MASTER MAKER edition of The Maker’s Field Guide.

230 pages, 460 color photos — digital companion PDF (spreads / 'slide deck' format) works on both Mac and PC.

The first and only resource of its kind to to combine almost every single technique on making & building prototypes / models for design, engineering, and product development — and to also elaborate on the fundamentals and advanced tools of the professional work shop. Covers tried and test old-school tools of the trade, as well as the new-school state of the art technologies. This guide is written for top professionals and curious DIY tinkerers alike — I have personally written this as a guide that I can quickly reference in the field or in the office, however because of it’s simple, non-technical language, it can be easily understood by anyone who may have little to no understanding of design. For anyone who enjoys the process of making, or for those who plan on building the next big Startup widget that will take the world by storm. Having the proper tools is half the battle to achieving successful results.This book has been written with advanced professionals in mind, but it is also meant to be used as a valuable resource for beginners, design students, or recreational hobbyists in mind.
