    Off topic forum

    The off topic forum, and what should/should not be posted on it has been discussed quite a bit lately. I remember that in our last telephone conference it was stated by someone that, basically, anything posted on that forum should be woodworking related but that it be something that didn't...

    Trying to redirect the off topic forum

    I posted this true Burning Story http://www.ncwoodworker.net/forums/f105/hot-gloat-30271/ in the off topic forum in hopes for a redirect prior to Jeff Mills returning Monday. Let's all hope it stays quiet and folks realize the true meaning of the off topic forum.

    Newbie to the Forum

    I’m new to the forum and have just dabbled in woodworking but the more I make the more I want to make more. I’m currently interested in making a long bow, a small boat, and a stock for a Kentucky long rifle out of curly maple or some other wood like it. Is there a way to know if a tree is...

    Off Topic Forum

    A week or so ago I posted a fairly stern statement about closing the off topic forum. After several responses were made to my post, I realized that it was in fact very harshly put. Sorry about that.:embaresse I then softened up the post to hopefully convey what the BOD had discussed in a...

    Forum Suggestion

    Something I would like to see as a beginner is when people show their finished work (ie: tables, desk, chest of drawers, etc) if they would be kind enough to share the tools they used to make it. Or even a little detail on how they made it. When I see this nice furniture it makes me want to...

    New forum ideas

    Could not sleep last night. Brain in overdrive mode. Any way I thought about adding two new forums to the site. They are Business and Education I am throwing this out here for discussion. Here are my thought for each. Business: A forum to be used to discuss the business side of...

    Does the forum not have a Grump (Ignore) capability? Thanks

    thought on rearranging the Forum pages

    To Jim "froggylips", If I knew how to do a screen shot I would and paste it here to better make my point. I don't so let's see if I can explain. About half way down the page before you get to the actual forum, the forum name is listed in a white box. After that comes add's and a few other...

    Safety Forum?

    Since I have been following posts (less than two years,) I have seen several by injured members who are sharing their tool safety errors and the near tragic results with us after the fact. It strikes me as odd that we have no tool safety discussion forum. Oh now I see it... it's a sub-forum...

    FYI: Shop Crawl forum closed....

    Based on usage, we have decided to close the Shop Crawl forum. All posts were moved into User Announcements. No hidden meaning or anything, just not enough ongoing post traffic to require a dedicated forum. Thanks! Jim

    Where's the gloat forum?

    This was one of the best days of my life today, not counting my wedding or the births of my children. I set up at about 7:30 this morning at the persimmon Festival. It was a perfect day to be outside, not too warm, not too cool, just a little breeze and nice sunny day. A lot of people came and...

    Who we are Forum

    Am I just reading at the wrong time or is my suspicion correct. We have had a decrease in the who we are posts lately, the new members seem to be steady as I get about six emails per day on the Webmaster Email informing us of new members. Maybe the automated welcome needs to be looked at and...

    Forum tools for group buys

    I was thinking that the "write in" option would make group buys very simple. For example, let's say someone is organizing a lumber run. I write in my option of "150 bd ft of QSWO". If I decide I want more, I can create a new option for 200 bd ft. Other people can select "my" option as well of...

    Restricted Forum ?

    A few days ago I started a thread in the DIY-Home Improvement forum as a result of an e-mail from my SIL. http://www.ncwoodworker.net/forums/f90/steps-25610/ In the interest of expediency I sent him a link to the thread so he could read the replies himself. This morning he informed me the link...
