Al, I initially felt no need to reply as I have not read the article... I don't subscribe to FW nor do I have any desire to encourage the them along the strayed path from productive writing by buying a copy for that article alone.

That said, I stumbled across this and figured it was in reference to the same article. I do try to keep a eye on who is doing what and Sellers does have a lot of good information out there. Granted I disagree on some points but that is bound to happen - we are men not sheep, lol.

As mags go its hard to find a better one. Granted they don't get my vote on everything but they are miles ahead of the rest. I'm finding it hard to read or get anything out of most mags but FW fits my desires better than most. Hey want to see my latest cutting board I made with two kinds of wood?

Hey if you sport an 80 and use it, what works for you?

Friends don't let friends use stamped metal tools sold at clothing stores.

ehhh, I just really haven't found magazines to be all that fruitful. With the number of advertisements they should be giving most magazines away for free.

I don't use an 80 - I've always been partial to card scrapers and use a shop build scraper plane for anything large. So again, I really can't comment on the 80 in particular.
