technology meets craftsmanship
This condensed guide covers almost all of the major tools and materials available for making things — in a non-formulaic, overly technical, or jargon-filled textbook. Instead, the Maker’s Field Guide has been written as the practical reference guide revealing some of the close-guarded secrets of professional designers and model makers, from state-of-the-art technologies like 3D printing and advanced CNC routing & machining, to the more traditional, or “old school” manual machine techniques.
Over 20+ advanced Material types covered
The first and only book of its kind 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. Take a look at some of the sample content in the Master Maker PDF Modules.
the definitive guide to making anything imaginable — for passion or profit.
