BTW...I'm was not especially surprised, considering the source: The Family

I had a subscription to that magazine long before the web was what it is
today. I was never very impressed with their ideas and methods. Every
now and then a web search pops up a hit from the Family Handyman site,
and as you can see from that image, their staff/contributors still don't
have a clue.



I was going to make a post along those lines. I had a 2-year
subscription to Family Handyman 15 years ago and felt like I
"outgrew it" before it expired. The articles seemed "shallow".
No matter what you want to do, there has to be a better choice (of
magazine)!

I've not seen one. Maybe it's just me but I don't learn much about
woodworking from text (or audio). It's too much of a hands-on and
visual hobby. YouTube could be much better if the Youtubers weren't
so damned verbose. Fifteen minutes of yakking before the power even
gets turned on.
