thiS iS carpentry

ing magazine format on a

computer really work! This

is a fantastic accomplishment. The

page turning is easy and the text is

very readable. It is the irst time I

have really been comfortable read-

ing the content without resorting to

the PRINT key. The content is good

and very timely (I just bought one the

Chicago Multi Tools). Issue #1 had a

few bumpy places and I was unsuc-

cessful in using the option to send in

a comment, but issue #2 has cured

most of them. To you and the entire

THISisCarpentry team I say:

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

Y ou have succeeded in mak-

I did not seem to have any issues with

the site. What a great idea. I love the

fact that we can read what we want,

print what we need and not have to

throw the rest away. Good thinking.

Can't wait to see the next issue.

~Lynette, Westlake Village, CA

After reading some of the comments

about online reading problems, I want

to tell you that I have not experienced

any problems viewing. I like how the

pages turn and the video within the

articles. Great look and content. I look

forward to it every month and from

what I have seen so far, I am sure it

will only get better. Great job!

~Paul La Rosa

I'm sure you know there are carpen-

ters out there that want to learn (and

produce) good, interesting work.

However, the audio/video qual-

ity stinks. Choppy, hard to see video

is frustrating to watch. Is the prob-

lem on my end or yours? Also, when

I click on the videos nothing happens.

No pop-up window appears. I end up

being routed to blip tv.com.

Thank You for being a beacon of

light in the dismal spiraling pit that

our trade inds itself today.

Respectfully,

NOte: the following were taken from the

Jlc forum and some of the comments

were attributed to pseudonyms.

Works good, looks good, here. Love

the interactive functions. Way ahead

of the curve, Gary.

~"Richie Poor" (JLC Forum)

Gentlemen!

I'll address you this way because this

month, for the irst time, I was able to

read the whole issue w/out missing a

page. Downloads and videos worked

like a charm!

I have to give it to Collins for a very

amusing ad about their coping foot.

Loved watching the Collins guy pour

and drink his coffee as the other one

punched away on his saw.

Keep up the good work.

~Dave Murrell, Overland Park, KS

This a highly informative e-zine. I've

learned more useful skills in TIC's

3 issues than the last 3 years of JLC

and FHB. Thanks!

~"Unforgiven" (JLC Forum)

Dear TIC:

I discovered your magazine about 2

weeks ago and was wowed! The depth

(not to mention the photos) of each

article is well beyond any of the other

carpentry mags out there. Too often,

as a reader, I feel short changed be-

cause an author doesn't get into the

details. Jed Dixon's detailed articles

on tangent handrailing are excellent!

I like it and stay with the yellow

highlighter. Very Cool. Everyone

should pay attention to any page

with an Ad. The Advertisers make all

this possible.
