Editors Notebook

Home Furniture debuts-The excite

ment began soon after we called for en

tries for a book of inely crated household

furniture in WW

magazine outside of the painstakingly

compiled index information that makes

Fine Woodworking such a valuable refer

ence tool. Harriet, an avid reader of the

magazine, landed her job as indexer after

she told then-editor John Kelsey she

thought she could do a better job than

whoever was doing the index then. Little

did she know it was Kelsey himself.

If Harriet's introduction to working green

wood wets your appetite for more, she rec

ommends hands-on instruction from a

competent teacher. Among the teachers

and workshops we know that offer such

instruction are Country Workshops (90 Mill

Creek Road, Marshall,

�O�ng

#103. When the entries

poured in, we knew there was more there

than just a book. We kept asking ourselves

how we could better show off the wealth

of talent in the entries. The answer came as

we began to see a need for a new publica

tion that would go beyond the nuts and

bolts of woodworking techniques covered

in Fine Woodworking to explore in detail

areas of design and style that contribute to

successful furniture, furniture meant to be

used. What resulted is a new quarterly

magazine, the core of which will be beau

tiul examples of expertly made furniture.

Woodworking computer bulletin

b oards -nother breakthrough area in

woodworking information is electronic.

Woodworking has become just another

stop along the information superhighway,

as Michael Covington explains on p. 126 in

our "Notes and Comment" section. In ad

dition to the Internet woodworking forum

he talks about, there is also an active

group on Compuserve, and we've heard

about a number of independent wood

working computer bulletin boards that

have started up. We're curious how wide

spread the use of such services is and how

much our readers are interested. If you

have tips or information about wood

working bulletin boards or would just like

to read more about them in Fine Wo od

working, drop us a line.

Iron-on veneer-The concept of ironing

on veneer with a household iron and yel

low glue has generated more excitement

among woodworkers we've contacted

than virtually anything we've run in the

magazine in recent years. Just talking

about it sent all sorts of woodworkers

scurrying to their shops (ater a quick trip

to the laundry room to pick up an iron), so

they could try out this technique. Of

course, we've learned from a number of

independent sources that the technique is

not absolutely new. It, like so many other

woodworking techniques, was indepen

dently discovered by woodworkers in

widely separated shops.

But whether it's a new discovery or a

great rediscovery, it works. Contributing

editor Mario Rodriguez provides a good

introduction to the technique on p. 48 and

in the companion Video Take. Chemist

Chris Minick adds a technical explanation

of why and how the process works. It's a

great invitation to try something new,

opening up the world of veneers to folks

who might be afraid to give that part of

woodworking a try.

we listed Grainger (333 Knightsbridge

Parkway, Lincolnshire, Ill. 60069-3639;

800-473-3473) as a source for axial fans

(p. 48) and as a source for vacuum motors

(p. 86). Several readers have called to say

that Grainger does not carry a 9-in.-dia.

fan, but they do have a lO-in. fan (Dayton

model 4C688). Before you build Jim

Whetstone's air-filtration box, make sure

you have a fan in hand, so you can check

that the dimensions will work.

Readers have also called to say that they

were having dificulties buying both items

over the counter. Grainger, an industrial

and commercial equipment and sup

ply company, will sell only business-to

business as a matter of company policy

Grainger officials said. They will not sell

directly to consumers, but will sell whole

sale to companies. They require identifica

tion from all purchasers.
