Michael Dunbar After earning a

degree in French and an early career as a newspaperman, since 1971 Mike has completely immersed himself in the craft of Windsor chairbuilding. He's built hundreds of chairs and has taught thousands of students the craft at The Windsor Institute in Hampton, N.H. Now, he also shares his expertise (and humor) with weekly online posts on his blog, The Windsor Chronicles (thewindsorinstitute.com/blog).

In this issue, for the first part of his article on planecraft, Mike writes about proper use of scrub, jack and smooth planes (page 62).

David Charlesworth is a furniture maker

and the author of three woodworking books. Since 1977, he's specialized in helping others learn his craft. David lives in Devon, England, where he teaches at Harton Manor Workshops. His blog, at davidcharlesworth.co.uk/blog, includes woodworking articles and techniques, personal stories and the occasional history lesson. In this issue, he shares his expertise on using the band saw as a precision machine (page 56).

David Mathias By day, David teaches computer science courses at the Ohio State University. By night (and whenever else possible), he's a hobbyist woodworker with a particular love of American Arts & Crafts furniture. David shares his plans for a storage chest in the Greene & Greene style (with a few design twists of his own) beginning on page 36. Read more about David and his woodworking journey on his blog at web.mac. com/dmath/Woodworking.
