4.0 out of 5 stars Great book for CSMs, but...., February 15, 2010

It is exciting to see the surging interest in CSMs, and I am excited to have just purchased a beautifully refurbished machine. This book came out at just the right time for me and is a wealth of knowledge and information regarding CSMs, covering all of the major brands. However, I must warn you that the writing is seriously in need of an editor. There are really serious grammar and punctuation errors throughout the entire book and it makes it very difficult to read. As a freelance editor, I'd love to help them edit the book. The one redeeming factor is that it is the only book about CSMs in existence, so I guess they have a sure-thing in their audience.

This book really is a "101" course. It is very basic and not for anyone with experience with one of these wonderful old machines. I was a complete novice and by following the very clear directions one step at a time I made a tube with my sock machine the very first time I tried. I highly recommend this book to anyone just starting out with a CSM especially if there is no one nearby to help with instruction.
