Man, what a great idea! A totally untapped magazine market -- the
Outlaw Woodworker. You could have pictures of nekkid tattooed chicks
draped over stationary power tools and articles like "16 Gauge Nailers
& Body Piercing for Fun and Profit!" or "How To Get A Good Buzz On
While Running A Good Buzz Saw."

The guys that thought this one up are clearly Woodworking Gods. No
other way to say it. How could any woodworker not want to learn from
such geniuses?

I say Go For It. I personally can't wait to see what your magazine
will look like.

I'm in charge of conducting a market study for a new woodworking
magazine.

In a nutshell, the magazine owner would like to borrow the same style
as the motorcycle magazine "Easy Riders". The basic idea is most
woodworkers are men and it's believed they would appreciate to learn
how to make a mortise while looking at what the nature has done already
in terms of natural mortises. There would be "in-depth" tool reviews as
well as many explicit pictures of tools. Obviously, a new table saw
would "spread" all its accessories and great features on glossy paper.
It's planned to have plenty of plans, projects and surprises. We also
try to define if like Sports Illustrated, it would be appropriate to
get an annual issue featuring all the best tools presented under a
different angle.

Anyway, my question to you guys is would you wish a warm welcome to
this new magazine? Would you be more prone to stay in your workshop
longer if such magazine existed?
