Overall, it's getting where except for the eye candy of the user work in
Readers' Gallery and an occasional article it's surely losing its value.
I've subscribed since about Vol 2, but if it weren't for that longtime
inertia doubt would any longer...


I've mentioned before the obvious lameness of some of the "methods of work"
and "tips and tricks" in woodworking magazines in general the past few
years. Also noteworthy is the general increase in contentiousness of
"letter's to the editor's" in these same magazines since the advent of
inclusion of "e-mail".

Macrocosm reflecting the microcosm (the general 'dumbing down')? ...
probably not too far off the mark.
