The Show Did Go On!
Last week in Atlanta, Georgia (not nearly as hot as I feared it would be) proved to be a great time for woodworkers. Yours truly and the Journal staff covered the show with vigor … and a video camera!
Why that is good news for you is that we have our IWF Video Blog up and running and ready for you to check out the cool new stuff that Chris Marshall covered. We’ve got it all — from CNC machines to new types of glue and everything in between.
So take a look and see what was hot in Hotlanta. We walked the floor so that you didn’t have to. I think you will find it interesting.
