Germany

My first trip to Europe proved to be a thrilling and exhausting educational experience for me as I explored what makes Fein and Festool tools so good-and so expensive. Their engineers showed me they only accept less than perfect when it's just barely detectable under a microscope.



Project Showcase

We've shown you what's new from the WOOD magazine workshop. Now, let's see the latest from your workshop. In an upcoming new series called "Project Showcase," we'll present our favorite woodworking projects submitted by WOOD magazine readers.



Two dressers

My favorite furniture style, a distinctive take-off on Arts-and-Crafts design known as Greene and Greene, is not well-known. Still, I can use past WOOD magazine project plans to build my G&G pieces. And you can do the same to make furniture in your favorite style. Here's how.



Copper Art Patterns

These patterns are in addition to the full-sized patterns presented in the November 2005, Issue 166 of WOOD Magazine.



Magazine Box

Do you keep back issues of WOOD magazine for reference? And, if you haven't noticed, starting with issue 153, December 2003, WOOD magazine not only got thicker, but wider and taller. To house both the past issues of WOOD magazine and the newly upsized version, build these handsome and handy magazine file boxes. These boxes are as good looking as they are durable, and they're dimensioned to fit both sizes of magazines. Included with the box designs are the box-joint jig plan and procedure to machine this strong and decorative joinery.



workshop 2

Do you have the kind of shop other woodworkers like to visit? Is your shop filled with clever ideas that help you work smarter, faster, or safer? If so, submit your workshop for publication in America's Best Home Workshops, Volume 3.



Updates, corrections, and changes from the very first issue of WOOD magazine to the present.
