Shopsmith Forums

Back in March 2011 I posted about some homemade arbors for the 5/8" Shopsmith spindle here:

I wrote up a short version of that post and it has just been published on pg.47 of the Dec.2014/Jan.2015 issue of Machinist's Workshop magazine titled:

I thought some of you might keep an eye peeled for it.

Congratulations! How's it feel to be published?

Thanks! This is the seventh article of mine that they published. The sixth (about a year ago) was on the cover and the lead off article at the time. This little one is on the last page, so the "thrill" is a bit less, but I still get a kick out of it, as do friends and family.
(I think ).

Peter, I am glad to see SS uses advertising our very useful system. Keep 'um coming!

I, too, sent in an article to Highland Woodworking Online Magazine (not published in print like yours:( ) but it is the second one they have used.

The latest is on my Advent Calendar made last year for the grandchildren.

I am working on another of the Quilt Rack I made for a friend. As long as they keep paying, i'll keep writing.

That's great, Peter and Forrest. Nice to know we have some published authors in our midst.

I submitted three articles to Woodsmith. All three didn't meet their editorial criteria. I was crushed.

Forrest, I enjoyed your Advent Calendar article, nicely done!
Gene, you should keep on trying..........writing is a good hobby. Since you have four times as many posts on here as I do, I'm sure the following is like telling Grandma how to suck eggs:
Before my first article was sent in, I looked back at past articles and could see the style of writing Village Press were using, almost conversational when you read it, so I try to write that way.
