Well written with good diagrams
If you are looking to stamp sheet metal this seems to be a great book. I am about halfway through and enjoying reading it. I feel like I have a great concept of how my die will look and have started on a 3d model for it. It gives many calculations and standard value charts. For example, you can calculate the sheering force required for about 10 different metal types based on the perimeter of your cut and thickness of metal. This is useful when deciding to buy a press.

Excellent book on die design
A truly authoritative reference on die design in existence today. A detailed and technical yet easy to understand contents make this book a precious reference for every die designer and die makers. 'Chapter 5: Fourteen Steps To Design A Die' provides excellent yet fundamental details towards die design. There is definitely no regret from buying this book.

Great beginners book for die making
I have minimal machining experience, mostly self taught, and this book opens up the process of creating a die extremely well. I have only gotten through a few chapters but the illustrations are very good, the text is easy to follow and clear. Great book, from my admittedly novice point of view... but I have learned a lot.. and thats the point of this book.

Don't bank on the rating
Our class never got to use this text because of software issues in the accompanying program. I read through it and it has some solid info.

Very good book for beginners
Very good book for a beginner in this field, It helps you to understand the main elements for making a forming die, But it is not enough for a professional to design one.
