UPDATE: 2011 Fine Woodworking Archive DVD-ROM (1975 - 2011)

CleteBoothby writes: Hi all!

Someone told me that in issue 1 or 2 there was an idea to build a router jig for use with a lathe that had the router on a pivot coming down on top of the piece and arced down on top and slid down the bed way. Does anyone possibly have that original article or plan kicking around? It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you,

hrpeas writes: Think FWW is the best magazine ever.....sure wish there was a free hardcopy index as part of the the last annual issue--sure would help out us loyal subscribers. I'd buy the DVD if it was under $35 but hard to justify as a "must have" at $100....please enter me in the drawing to win the DVD.

woodnironsmith writes: I currently own the 1975-2010 version and I find the 2011 upgrade cost of $20 too expensive for the one year upgrade. If you are a current subscriber which means you already paid for the issues, the upgrade CD should be less than $10 or just shipping and handling. I also believe many subscribers would prefer to receive their issues as PDFтАЩs only, no paper like many other subscriptions (i.e. Popular Woodworking). Certainly anyone interested in purchasing the archive would be. I certainly am. This is of course unless Taunton Press wants to charge its subscribers twice for every issue. This may make me drop Fine Woodworking if it is not changed.

I'm new at woodworking,but I am catching on, but these computers are way past anything I got used to working in the bush.....Any kind of help would sure be appreciated! And I hate to rain on the parade here, but I couldnt find any help sections? the whole continuing archive sounds great!

To have the past 35 years of FWW on DVD wood be a lot of fun researching different ways to create new projects. I'm not holding my breath on winning this DVD but rather send this info to my Daughter in Law to put it on top of my Christmas list.

Sparrell writes: The opportunity to win this CD of all the information contained in Fine Woodworking magazine's years is great! It certainly would be a huge benefit to anyone who loves woodworking, especially someone like me who has been attempting to increase my skill level. I started woodworking only a few years ago and really enjoy it. Actually, subscribing to Fine Woodworking for a number of years was what convinced me that pursuit of woodworking was a worthy activity in that it gives one a chance to be creative while developing fine skills that could result in some beautiful and worthwhile projects. My projects to date have been a small desk insert modifying an existing credenza, and several boxes for my grand children's treasures. So, this journey toward excellence in woodworking has been exciting and most challenging. However, I am still working with a positive attitude with hopes of getting a little better with each project. In any case, I am having fun. Now, if we can just find wood that is good and cheap, some more time to pursue the fun stuff, and some money to buy the desired (needed tools) that we all drool over, life will be even better.

There should be a way to purchase a disk with the current years or a heavy discount for earlier purchasers who want to keep current if the only way is to purchase a completely new disk.

Perhaps a way to download the additional issues after you have purchased the disk and loaded it onto your computer?

Since I re-discovered my passion for woodworking I have made FWW an integal part of the education experience. Having learned the basics in high school (30 yrs ago) and some advanced skills, FWW introduced me to new techniques, tools, and skills that were long forgotten or not yet developed when I last fiddled around in the hobby. FWW also played a big part in my new tool purchases as they provided valued reviews and trials by your staff. I've only been subscribing for 2 years now (this being my 2nd year) but subscribing to FWW online has allowed me access to archived stories from stories I have missed during my gap years of woodworking. I hope to make this a retirement business in a few years and FWW will be a big part of that.

TheWilds writes: This is a great opportunity for me, not only to throw my name in the hat but also to voice the great appreciation I have for "Fine Woodworking". I am overseas with the military and subscribing to the magazine and expecting to receive it is often problematic...my subscription to the online newsletter is the guaranteed method for receiving surely and on time the excellent information found in "Fine Woodworking". I am building a home in northwestern Pennsylvania and the information from "Fine Homebuilding" (I have that DVD) and "Fine Woodworking" is crucial to much of my planning. Please keep up the great work, particularly bringing to all of us the real life advice and experiences of the many craftsmen that appear in each edition.

TheToadMen writes: Hello FWW,
I'm new to woodworking and a subscriber since 4 months. Until now, I've made a wooden pinhole camera and a bench for my daughter. I ordered some books at your site to learn the techniques and how to design.
So it would be great to win this hugh archives with knowledge, examples, tips, techniques, etc.
I want to build a non-liniair table and I'm sure I'll find examples on this DVD to make my own design.
I hope I'll win ;-)
(And if so, I'll let you know what it did for me)

It would be great if print subscribers could get a significant discount on the annual archive DVD (or dream on ... get it for free).

Alas my mother-in-law in her effort to get the house ready for showing found all his FW and gave them away Arrrrhhh!!!! so owning a copy of FW on DVD would allow me to reminisce vertually and recall those fun discussions.

Thanks for a great magazing!

williamchall writes: Put me in coach! Hey, what do you guys think of an online version of this dvd indexed in a similar fashion that can be subscribed to as an add-on to your online presence or regular subscription? Obviously, you would have to make it cheaper than owning the dvd and take something away to make people want to buy the dvd. Perhaps a limited number of pdf article downloads per month or something like that. I just like the idea of being able to thumb through the magazine in digital format for all printed years on say an iPad, but not having to own and maintain a $99+ dvd archive and then following years on dvd.

I've been messing around building doghouses and garden boxes without any real idea of what I was doing or what I wanted to accomplish. Fine woodworking has given me the info to be able to start building real furniture. And though its not 'fine' yet, I have seen my skills improve 1000% since signing up for the website
