I have every issue of Fine Woodworking! Please stay away from this “reality crap” if that is where your competition is heading. David Mark’s show has disappeared, New Yankee …too. Now we have reality shows, this crash and that crash demonstrating sometimes very foolish acts and teaching very little. Please, keep you fine magazines far away from such foolishness. We don’t need time-limited competitions to teach us or inspire us. You are doing fine as well as a few other publications in the US and UK.

At 56 I have been collecting and learning to use tools for most all my life; my first real tool box at age seven. I need to learn more and more; reading, doing and watching. I live in a neighborhood of late 30’s and 40’s, it seems most of them can’t do anything,keep teaching us, this reality competition stuff has got to blow over, don’t you think, please keep it pure. Thanks for the decades of very fine publications. Guy
