TIP - Count fingers prior to and after every woodworking session!!! I'm
serious...this small exercise puts safety thoughts at the forefront during
your time in the shop.

Calling for woodworkers of all persuasions to submit and share their
favorite woodworking tips. These will go down in history (archived) so
please keep them clean and civil so that your children and grand-children
can read these.

Suggested guidelines:

1. The "Tip" does not have to be your original thought - just one that you
use and find useful but please make note of country of origin in the post.

2. Multiple entries are encouraged.

3. If you have a variation on a specific tip or point, please follow the
original posting so it shows up in the archives correctly.

4. If you need to submit a graphic to clarify a tip, post it to
alt.binaries.pictures.woodworking (a.b.p.w) using the same subject line
entry followed by a short description, i.e., Favorite Woodworking Tips
2004 - TS Alignment

5. Please no links to sites listing tips or information.

Realize that these posts will include ideas, suggestions and bits of
wisdom
from around the world and that their entry(s) may not work for you because
of differences you may not be aware of. These differences may be created
by
physical limitations of the equipment available to the individual in a
particular country (e.g., short arbors by the Brits), to major language
differences (e,g., the Aussies....;-).

No need to argue a point, simply suggest your alternative ideas and help
the
tip grow. It just may spawn a new method of work or another idea that no
one has tried before.

If the tip pertains to doing something with/to wood using a tool, powered
or
unpowered, then its acceptable. This includes all manner of woodworking,
from carving to woodturning and subcategories.

The prize...........

A wealth of archived information to draw upon that is now categorized
under
one subject line.

Pass it on...
