National Magazine Looking for Awesome Workshops

[woodworkingshop.com]

Folks,

Thought I would pass this request along in hopes that some of you might be interested and contact them. GOOD LUCK............:icon_thum

Subject: WOOD Magazine local workshop search

[FONT=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial]We are looking all across the United States and Canada for home workshops that would offer something of interest to our readers, and I’d like your help in finding some in your area. What we’d like to do is create a one-time publication, something like “America’s Best Home Workshops,” that would show detailed photographs, tool and machinery layout, dust collection network, unique storage ideas, and any helpful tips, jigs, or projects that might be waiting to be discovered. If you know of any woodworkers in your area (or even if they’re not close) that might have a home shop or a small production shop that really intrigues you and would be interested in helping out, we’d love to hear about it.

Don't think mine will qualify:crybaby2:

 

[ChrisMathes]

Very cool! thanks for sharing that here!

From reading the above, it sounds like you don't have to have a complete shop, but perhaps a 'station' that is unique! So, if you have implemented a particular tool in a unique way....enter.

How cool would it be to have a NCWW in that book!?!?!?!?

Cheers!
Chris

Mine won't qualify either. ;-)

 

[SteveColes]

Well, I suspect this is "unique":rolf: :rolf: :rolf:

Looks like DaveO's elves stopped by and ambushed your garage. :rolf:

Alan in little Washington? Here's your chance.

 

[sapwood]

Oh yeah, we should have some serious contenders. Of course, I've only seen pixs of some of these: Alan in Little Washington, Woodguy, Bernhard, Dino, Gator's famous "small shop", Scott's, and on and on . . . .

And I gotta be leaving some out :lol:

Steve Coles and I are holding out for the "Extreme Shop Make Over" :rolf:

Steve, you cleaned up since I was there. :eusa_danc The shop looks great....:icon_thum

Where is that new lathe?8-O

Well, I suspect this is "unique":rolf: :rolf: :rolf:

 

[NCPete]

That one doesn't count, Steve, that was an entire generation of tools ago:lol:

 

[scsmith42]

Rog, I'm flattered that you included me in your list - but I don't think that I'm in their league when it comes to woodworking tools!

Now, if you want to cover "breadth" of toys - oops I mean tools, then I might have a slim chance...

(I spent some time with this one earlier today...) :eusa_danc
