No Adds???

Post by "Wild Bad Bob" »

Over the past few years, after getting into WW in retirement full time, I have subscribed to various WW magazines. I noticed, the light came on, I have never seen an add for a SS, I wonder why they dont advertise in WW magazines.
Looking forward to going to one of there weekend demos this coming weekend in Appleton, WI. Going with my nephew who is a avid turner on his 54 greenie. We are going to pretend we dont own one and analyses there sales techniques!!

Good Luck 'acting dumb'!;)

I do not think you need encouragement, but do tell us all about it if they let you go home.:D

Do get his name! :)
Better yet, take yer camera!!!:cool:



P.S. Ads cost $. Magazines(printed) are becoming passe.

Make sure to ask a bunch of stupid questions!!!!:D Like: What is a rip fence? How does a miter gauge measure miters? Why do you call that planer a jointer? Why does the motor stall when starting? Can the band saw be run in reverse? Why does the table tilt instead of the blade? What's a drill press? Why is there sawdust on the floor since you are using a vacuum while sawing? Can this be used to make holes in swiss cheese? . . .
