Take a look at when he spins the table around to show you the back of
it, there you will see dry wall screws poking out the side of the
plywood. 3 of them that I can see. Now I didn't need to see this, and I
don't read the magazine anylonger. I have lost respect for many of the
writers over time. There are still very good woodworking writing for
them, but they do so only occassionaly.

I expect more from somone trying to show you how to do something.
I've not been impressed with Matt




Most of what is mentioned in many magazines should be taken with a grain
of salt.

Basically, IMHO, the majority on YouTube and those in the magazines fall
into the old saying,

Those that can, do. Those that can't, teach.


Yep I agree, I happened to use that statement in front of a friend;
referring to a professor (who worked on the side where I worked) and who
didn't know what the hell he was doing coding wise. His code was
horrendous and his knowledge was more theoretical than practical.

That friend was a teacher... I was unable to get my foot out of my mouth..
