Hand Tools & Techniques Hits iTunes 07/28/2009
Well after some work over the weekend, I've finally managed to work out all of the bugs that were haunting the podcast and it's communication with iTunes. So for those of you who have been long awaiting this day, it's finally here. You can now get the podcast through iTunes. I've also made getting there a little easier since it's been brought to my attention that the little widget provided by the podcast host that was supposed to make it easy to subscribe using iTunes doesn't work like it should. So instead, I've just put direct links on the Podcast page so you can click once and subscribe with iTunes or using the podcast's RSS feed. Thanks to everyone who has waited so patiently! Hope you enjoy the new feature! Episode # 4: The Mechanics of Sawing 07/25/2009
The hand saws are the workhorses of the hand tool shop. They're used for just about every operation on just about every part of a project. So it's important to be able to saw accurately in order to be effecient. In this episode, I share three tips I've learned for making consistently more accurate saw cuts. Just A Quick Update 07/21/2009
Well, it's been pretty slow with regards to shop time in the last three or four weeks and as a result the blog and podcast have been sitting pretty idle. We've been pretty busy lately with family events, some unexpected veterinary trips, a vacation that got cut short and getting outside to enjoy some of the nice weather we've finally gotten over the last couple of weeks here in the Northeast. Email Troubles 07/08/2009
I'm not sure if it's my email or the site's contact form or if some folks are just not entering real email addresses in the contact form, but I have gotten several email replys I have written to folks returned to me as undeliverable in the last couple of weeks. So if you have been waiting for a reply from me and you have not received one, that is likely the reason why. I do read and reply to every email that I get so if you have sent an email with a question, a suggestion for the podcast or just to say "Hi" and I have not sent you any reply at all, even just to say "Thanks!", rest assured that I'm not ignoring your message. I definatly sent you a reply but if you didn't receive it then it got returend to me as undeliverable (Noel, your messages come to mind immediately as there have been several that were returned on a number of occasions). |
