A temporary home for new items
Using an older style web page editor, I started this site as a means of supporting contributions to the all-text woodworking forums, but it has developed into a device for re-cycling material already published (and paid for) that otherwise would be snoozing on my hard drive and doing nothing very useful. I hope that the quality of information compensates for the primitive site design. Apologies for the variable drawing quality - most are my original drawings as prepared for re-working by an illustrator.
