You obviously have newsgroup acceessibility or you wouldn't be reading this.
A.B.P.W stands for Alt.binaries.pictures.woodworking. On your toolbar click
newsgroups and enter this into the newsgroup form. Then click "go there"

Every time I see one of these "My first..." photo posts, I expect
to see some kind of basic work by a relative newbie. But they always
end up being some amazing work of art by someone quite talented.
For those of us who are newbies and are proud that we can make a
single straight cut once in a while, how about if you use a title
like "Built a million widgets, now I tried a box" :-)

PS - That box is lovely.

It looks like you're using 'google' as your server of the wreck so you won't
get a.b.p.w.
If your isp has newsgroup availability see if you can access it there
otherwise use this link (and there are others) to see what's been archived
from a.b.p.w.

I believe he's getting to the groups through "Google" which doesn't contain
binary groups. Sometimes it pays to look at the OP 'properties' before
posting.
