Woodworking Magazine — Now Available by Subscription

Here’s a little history, in case you’re not familiar with Woodworking Magazine. In 2004, it was started by the Popular Woodworking staff , without the blessing of our parent corporation. The market, they thought, was too crowded for another woodworking magazine. But we knew in our gut that this wasn’t just another magazine. So, we kept putting it out on the newsstands twice a year as an experiment to see if readers would embrace a magazine with black-and-white photos, techniques that frequently defied conventional wisdom , and no advertising.

Now, thanks to our loyal base of readers, we will publish the magazine four times in 2008, and offer subscriptions by mail. You can find out more about the magazine, and download a free sample issue, at the Woodworking Magazine web site.

You can also see what a bunch of unbiased readers have to say about Woodworking Magazine on the Woodnet forum, listen to a podcast about the magazine from The Wood Whisperer, and read just a sampling of unsolicited praise below.

First, and most important, Woodworking Magazine is the most important contribution to woodworking since the invention of electricity. If I could give an Oscar, or some other widget, for achievements in woodworking publications you all would smack-dab snatch it away in fine style.

Your magazine is just what I am looking for to grow the skills that I have. I read every article and learn so much it is scary.

It’s a breath of fresh air to get technical woodworking tips for those woodworkers who still know how to use their hands to craft something.

It’s a great publication , too nice to be called a magazine.
