Woodwork magazine

[Brad Knabel]

Hi All,
I know that Woodwork magazine had recently been purchased. I was just wondering if anybody knew what the future held in store for the magazine. I noticed last week that their web site (www.woodwork-mag.com) had gone dark and it's still down today.

I was holding out some hope that publication would continue under the new ownership, but that's beginning to dim. I enjoy Popular Woodworking and Fine Woodworking, but will definitely miss Woodwork if it is indeed gone. If anybody knows something I'd really like to hear it. Thanks!

Here's what I found with a Google search. Sad News. I wonder how many issues I had left on my subscription? I haven't had time to read the whole thing yet - it's a bunch of letters from former fans and contributors - but it does allude to it having been sold. Maybe it will be back.
