New Expanded Edition of The Maker's Field Guide, "The No. 1 Book on Industrial Design"

Christopher Armstrong's prototyping bible gets an update

The book has been expanded from the original 2018 addition to include 30 pages on 3D printing.

The Maker's Field Guide has already been successfully Kickstarted, with $47,254 in pledges at press time on a $22,500 goal. There are still 3 days left to pledge.
