CNTOIXM Changes, After All These Years I'm always glad to hear that readers (225.000 of you. at last count) like what we're doing with your favorite magazine. My sincere thanks for all the comments about the changes we made in the last couple of issues! Inside this magazine? More changes to our 25-year-old publication. That's right; as I reminded you last time, the year 2001 begins the second quarter century for our magazine. To my way of thinking, our silver anniversary is the perfect time to do a little revamping and reinventing: We're keeping the best of the old. but adding fresh, new topics as our magazine grows up. (Just think of it as a 25-year-old moving out of dad's garage — making room for some cool new tools.) Our master furniture maker. Rick White, considers the jointer one of the most valuable tools in his shop. Here he's shown preparing stock tor the China Cabinet in this issue, look for Charlie Self's review of jointers on page 56. One of these cool new tools is our Questions and Answers section (see page 14). Where did we get this idea? From you, our readers. You asked for a department dedicated to addressing serious wotKlworking questions. We heard you, and our experts are now standing by. Of course, those magical mystery tools you always found in our Stumpers department aren't going away. Instead, we've officially recognized that ihev've taken over: Stumpers is now dedicated to old. odd and curiosity-provoking tools, and can be found on our last page. I know .... that's where End (irain our "readers'gallery" always resided! Don't worry, that department has been merged with Letters (.vc page 10). Your project photos, comments, criticisms and occasional high fives — all your reactions to the magazine — will now be in the same place. And. please ... keep 'era coming. # a Maybe one of those pictures will be of a project you find in this issue. Again, our choices reflect a blend of the old and the new. For example, we asked Rick White to design his China Cabinet (see page 42) so it would go with a dining table and chair from previous issues. And then there's John Kelliher's display cabinet, which provides a new home for some old medals -— check out his touching slory on page 36 Mike .MeGJynn's take on a Greene and Greene lamp (see page 51), uixlated to use electricity instead of gas. represents our final blending of the old and the new. Whether you're looking for a well-worn favorite or a fresh new approach. I'm betting Woodworker's Journal will have what you need. Keep turning the pages, and enjoy. V S&jL— Your Q's & Our A's When you send a question to our new department, well get your answer to you just as soon as one of our experts tackles your query — you won't have to wait for the next issue, except to see if you've won the drawing for the free tool.
