I just get them and read them, save them, and when bored go get an old copy and read it again. I am talking primarily about Fine Woodworking and This Old House. I was thinking why are there so few of them and dah! I looked and they only come out 6 -7 times a year.
I'm sure the effort to conceive, write, correct and re-write corrected portions is complex and time consuming. My hat is off to the writers and editors of these publications. I am interested in how they stay fresh and on schedule to meet their deadlines. I am thinking bi-monthly publishing of these magazines is a severe undertaking.
Maybe some body like Megan or Chris could elaborate.
I should have included Popular Woodworking in the first paragraph.
