MWA Review 1 Rough Cut Woodworking with Tommy Mac

A few months ago the founding administrators of the Modern Woodworkers Association were given the opportunity to review the new Rough Cut book from Taunton. It’s a companion to the first season of the TV show entitled “Rough Cut - Woodworking with Tommy Mac”.

The book dedicates a chapter to each of the season one projects with an additional chapter on finishing. It does a good job of walking readers through the projects and with a basic understanding of woodworking and the corresponding episode as a supplement most of the projects should be easily achievable.For our full review, please listen as four woodworkers banter on and on about actually having read a book.We’re working on setting it up in iTunes and we’ll update this as soon as we do. Until then, please listen here.Also, thanks to my fellow MWA Admins for making this happen.This post originally appeared at modernwoodworkersassociation.com

Meet the Modern Woodworkers Association at Woodworking in America

I usually limit most of my Online Woodworking Community discussion to the Modern Woodworkers Association site, podcast and organization I help run.

Today Im sharing some MWA news here also, because the news is big. Popular Woodworking Magazine has been kind enough to enter into a marketing agreement with the Modern Woodworkers Assocaition. In exchange for helping to promote Woodworking in America, the Modern Woodworkers Association will receive booth space at both the Pasadena and Cincinnati WIAs in 2012. They will also provide us with a small compensation for anyone who buys tickets to either WIA using our affiliate code: MODERNWW

Please understand that the code has some implications on the use of early bird pricing, so before you run out and use it, please read the full post here, on the MWA blog.

On behalf of the entire MWA, I thank you for your support and well see you at WIA.
