Woodturning UK

[Emiliano Achaval]

Woodturning Uk magazine came out today for those of you that read it on you Ipad or computer. I have an article about making a Poi Pounder, and one of my pictures made to the cover... I'm having a hard time wiping the smile of my face... Let me know what you think if you read it. Aloha

Sorry but I can't open it to read the article. I click on the thumbnail photo but can't go anywhere from there. Suggestions? BTW, there is a tremendous shortage of poi here in the South.

I gave an annual subscription to Woodturning to myself for Christmas because they have a lock on woodturning magazines, at least in print form, which I prefer over electronic "magazines". I look forward to reading the issue.

I got the magazine online this year. I'm still not so sure about that. As long as I read it cover to cover it's not too bad although I still find it very awkward to hold the IPAD. What I really hate is if you want to skip a bunch of pages to go forward or back. Woodturning isn't that bad about dividing articles. My American Handgunner starts all articles as 1 page and then follows up about 40 pages later with the rest of the article. A real pain in the patuty to have to flip through all those pages. Much easier with a paper copy. Woodturning magazine is just too pricey to get the paper version. I will look up your article.

Not got mine yet but will have a read when I do. I don't subscribe to mine so have to wait for it to appear on the shop shelves and when the wife goes into town. I still prefer paper copies over the downloaded version

Hard to take my laptop into the bathroom and then put it the magazine rack. Prefer turning real pages made of paper.

Sorry, that’s just a screen shot of the cover... There is an App for IOS and Android called Woodturning, you can subscribe there, or www.thegmcgroup.com on your computer. After 30 years I still didn’t develop a taste for poi, lol. I can send you share... Aloha!

Looking forward to your honest opinion, you have been doing this more years than me. I’m a rookie writer... Any inputs greatly appreciated. Aloha.

If you get any advice send it this way as I have only written 4 articles for "The Woodworker" magazine and still seem to spend ages getting it just right

Today I almost finished the base Im doing. I'm adding a 3.75 in base, made out cement and steel, its going to be bolted right at the base. The electrician almost finished adding a second 220 line for her, I'm calling her "My Lady". .. I will upload a picture of the poi pounder. One was just a poi pounder, the other one a secret box, with hand chased threads...

My wife came in this morning with my copy. A great article Emiliano. I did like the one where you can hide things in it have you thought about the lid being where the top is so it still could be used yet hide things in who would suspect a kitchen utensil had a hidden secret

Good idea!! I'll add a sketch of it in my "to do" sketch book... Thank you for the feed back. I love to hear from the readers! Aloha from Maui
