Chock Full of Info,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: DEWALT Construction Professional Reference (Dewalt Trade Reference Series) (Paperback)
I purchased a _Handyman In-Your-Pocket_ years ago and was amazed at the amount of info it contained. Now that I am doing handyman work for a living, I found and purchased the _DeWALT Construction Professional Reference_ and am again astounded at the sheer volume of good, solid, extremely useful tips contained within. From door striker centerline height (40-5/16" from the bottom frame) to clear span charts for different wood species, to nailing schedules, to rigging info, to painting specs, to masonry/concrete, to screw torque charts, this PAL-format pocketbook has an extremely long list of useful info ready for you. I keep mine in the truck with me for reference on the job. The two books have different data sets, and I'm glad I have both HIYP and DCPR. I wish I'd known about the DeWALT book earlier. It's a must-buy. If I ran a crew, I'd buy a copy for each and every one of them. Just Do It!
