WoodenBoat. Only comes every other month, but well worth the wait.
Thiis issue has got an excellent article on Dust Control Strategies; how
to, a dust control attachment for a circular saw; a bit on the Festool
rail-guided saw; a bit on Lee Valley's "Little Victor" plane. Plus the
usual pics of boats built or restored by readrs, loads of color pictures
of boats and some most excellent woodworking. And, ads for tools, wood,
fastenings, boats for sale, et al. I figure as long as I'm going to
look at wodwor I'll never do, and/or afford, might as well look big.
They have how to articles too, bending wood, plane making, plane
modifying, laminating wood, and so on. It's the only woodworking
magazine I get now, and te only one I wouldn't be willing to get rid of.
Even if you don't like boats, some very excellent woodworking.

Nice!
Yeah, my life plans include building a small to medium sail or cabin
motor boat to learn some technique, then a ChrisCraft style Runabout,
love that mohogany and finally some big mutha as my retirement project
to sail off into the sunset.
I might need to chase down a subscription to that mag.

Not to worry. He'll launch it in shallow water. Then if it won't
float, there'll still be enough sticking out of the water so he can turn
it into a "floating" restaurant.

A co-worker of mine built a _beautiful_ 20' motor boat, based on
something in that mag. The boat is white cedar with white oak rails
and hard points, along with mahogany details. He recently sold it in
the WB classifieds and had it shipped from CT to Sacramento, CA.
A great mag, it is! One of these days. I'd like to replace my cheesy
plastic kayak with a pretty wooden model built by me. Our local
Woodcraft has an excellent kayak building class.
My retirement project is going to be an experimental airplane. Gotta'
get some metalworking skills... <G>
