Book Reviews of Monster Garage: How to Weld Damn Near Anything (Motorbooks Workshop)

Book Review: Maybe better called "How to Weld Anything... that is a tubular steel car body"
Summary: 2 Stars

With a name like "How to Weld Damn Near ANYTHING", I thought I'd be learning all the tricks needed to weld together two aluminum cans, or maybe the secret to welding a tungsten wear plate to a stainless carrier.

Alas, there is none of that. Just a rehash of stuff you can find in any basic welding text without much useful added. If you want basic info, download the Miller introductory books from the web for free and you'll get much more (and better) information.
