Have any?

For ALL units for ALL measurments. (US/Met/SI/etc.)

Length/area/distance
Capacity and volume
Weight
Temperature
Force
Electicity/Magnatism

Watts, Volts, Acres, Chains, Kg/g, Meters, Feet, Yards, Miles, Furlongs, lbf/lbm, slugs, Kelvin, F*/C*, ATM, Henrys, Maxwell/Rel/Webbers/Gilberts, In/Cm, Tsp/Tbsp, CPS/Hertz, Etc.. The whole works.

The book should include descriptions, basic formulas/equations, conversions and tables, and maybe a few examples. And if it also contained all the laws (Ohm's, Lense's, Newton's, Maxwell's, Bernoulli's principle, etc.) and a bit of the math behind it (ex: Trig/pythagorean theorem)that would be grand.

That Pocket Ref. Book has a TON of info. in it. If we all knew everything in that book we'd be able to build and solve anything.

I have the Glover Pocket Ref also.
3x5x1/2
I got them at the check out lane of my local ACE
All kind of formulas, conversion tables, etc.
I find it easier to use than a website.

On the cover mine say:

Abbeon Cal, INC
123-33T Gray Ave
Santa Barbara, CA 933101
(805) 966-0810

But inside the publisher is:
Sequoia Publishing, Inc.
Morrison, Colorado, USA

I would guess they were a marketing thing for Abbeon.
Whoever they are.
(I have never bothered to look them up.

Thanks.

I notice there is a 3rd Edition, and a 4th Edition. 3rd is half the price (around $6).

BTW, for those of you who have the book, is there a good example in it of how to calculate Bernoulli's Equation is PSI/Ft/Etc.? There are good tutorials on YouTube (ex: Michael Van Biezen), but unfortunately they all use "SI" units instead of "RW"(Real World) units.

You just had to bring back those college memories, didn't you?

Well....here is one for you...Maxwell's Equations

Handbook of applied mathematics. 5x7x4
Handbook of applied engineering. 5x7x3
Thick books, thin paper.
They give you 2000 plus pages.

Complete, and usually 4 bucks at a used book store.
