I have been receiving The Woodworker's Journal for about 6 months and have been enjoying it a great deal. The designs in "The Gift Shop" pages are simply great. The frog design (May/June 1980) really took my eye, so much that I would like to build about 16 of them to sell at the next crafts show. May I do this legally without the permission of The Woodworker's Journal? If not, may I have your permission for the project? E. Loeffel, Pleasant Valley, N.Y.

We've had this question come up several times recently and the confusion is probably related to our copyright. The copyright we have applies to the project drawings and write-ups, and only serves to protect them from being reproduced by others and sold as plans.

From our plans, you can make and sell as many of the projects as you like, and our permission is not needed. In fact, one of the primary reasons we offer "The Gift Shop'' section is to provide projects for those readers who wish to make a little extra money from their woodworking hobby. So best of luck at your show, and we hope you sell all 16 of those little wooden frogs.

I received my first copy (July/August 1980) of your publication and decided to make the pine wall clock shown on pages 10 and 11. In looking over the instructions and drawings I noticed several errors. The 10" x 10" (part D) needs a 7" square opening, not 81/j" as stated in the write-up. Also, the drawing on page 11 shows chamfers on the sides of part D. This is not correct as the chamfers should be located on the sides of part B. Finally, the bottom of part A is shown to have a IV*' radius, when in fact it has more nearly a 2Vi" radius. M.H. Baugh, Washington, N.C.

Mr. Baugh is correct on all three points. Although we make every effort to provide plans that are clear, complete, and accurate, we occasionally do make mistakes, so it's appreciated when readers take the time to write and tell us about plans that contain errors. This enables us to print a correction in the following issue.

Can you tell me where I can get some brass candle sockets? S. Hay-ward, Dysart, IA.

CABINETMAKERS DELUXE SCREWDRIVERS

These traditional high-quality screwdrivers are specially designed for the much-neglected wood screw. Both the Sheffield tool steel blade and the polished red beech handle make this tool not only functional but handsome. The upper portion of the blade is flattened for a wrench when more torque is needed and the oval-shaped handle affords a better grip than the conventional round type. Set of 5 screwdrivers, 3", 4", 5", 6" and 8". 13A40-C $23.45 ppd.
