EDITOR S NOTE

Cutoffs

One of the things I enjoy most about woodworking is the optimism of woodworkers — their attitude and enthusiasm. Whether I talk to someone in person, on the phone, through the mail, or via electronic mail, they're usually excited about some new idea or technique.

They're also always looking for a way to improve something — their shop, a project, or a finish. Along with this come lots of suggestions. "Hey Don, how about? Or have you ever considered? And I sure would like to see..."

improvements. It's no different when you get a bunch of woodworkers together to publish a magazine. This desire for improvement is just as strong.

In this issue, you'll find a number of improvements. Nothing drastic. Just things you've been asking for — like more tips, a special department for the small shop, the Lumberyard, and the Finish Room in every issue.

We've also included two new regular features. We're calling the first feature a Hands-On Project because it uses one of the techniques in the issue. It's just a

quick project to give you a "taste" of a new technique. In this issue, there's a simple Wall Mirror. It's based on the built-up molding article show on page 12.

selecting tools. The second new feature is Selecting Tools. We've set out to write articles that will help you select the right tool for your needs. But with two important differences from the 'tool reviews" you're likely to find in other magazines.

First, we don't receive any of the tools as gifts. We buy them at full price just as you would. This way we don't owe anyone any favors.

This also assures us of getting a regular production model and not a tool specially prepared by the manufacturer. The end result is an honest, unbiased look at each tool. (In this issue, we feature circular saws, see page 8.)

And second, instead of providing a single viewpoint, we've carefully selected a team of testers "with a wide range of skills — so that you can easily identify with one of them.

I'm excited about these new improvements. Let me know what you think.
