January 21, 20215 yr Popular Post comment_255398 Looking through the Lee Valley web site, I came across this. Seems to be a new magazine specializing in hand tools and their use. They have issues 1 and 2 on the web site, but I don't know if a subscription is available. If a subscription is wanted, you might have to buy the first issue from LV and then contact the publisher. I just did a screenshot, so there is some extra garbage in the picture from my desk top. Report
January 21, 20215 yr Author Popular Post comment_255399 I should have read the description on Lee Valley closer. Apparently it is available in single issues only, not by subscription. Report
January 22, 20215 yr Popular Post comment_255525 That is really cool Tom! Thanks for the heads up. Subscription or not, a magazine on hand tools and the hand craft is a great thing! Report
January 22, 20215 yr Popular Post comment_255528 just ordered issue 1 and 3, 2 was sold out. Looks like a nice publication on the subject Tom, thanks again for the heads up! I am currently a subscriber too Mortise and Tenon, and love them very much. If you have not subscribed to them Tom, I'd highly recommend it. They call themselves a magazine, but reality is, you're getting a soft cover book each issue. Report
January 22, 20215 yr Popular Post comment_255576 I found the home site Tom, at: Quercus Magazine – For anyone working wood by hand QUERCUSMAGAZINE.COM For anyone working wood by hand And here's a little write up by Chris Schwarz ‘Quercus’ Magazine. Yes. – Lost Art Press BLOG.LOSTARTPRESS.COM As a lifelong journalist, I’ve struggled to come to terms with newspapers and magazines. They must exist in order to promote... It is a subscription rag in Europe and the UK, but it appears here in the US you gotta buy it like I did, buy the issue and when they are available. The UK sure has hit the hand craft stage running and on fire, I love what they are doing over there with Greenwoodworking and the likes. Report
January 23, 20215 yr Popular Post comment_255594 Many years ago Mr Lee published a small magazine with very little to no ads. Think it lasted two years and my SIL got me all the issues . Was a pretty neat publication . I think the name was Woodcuts. Ok just looked it up . They published 9 issues about 36 pages 92-93. In 2017 Vintage Magazines had issue #1 for sale for 199.95 . Say I could have a $900 windfall in the shop. By the way they had the best write up on doing dovetail joints I have ever read and I used it to do my first DT drawers. Report
