I was told by our webmaster that once one is logged in, the popup shouldn’t show. It’s supposed to show up only to those who’ve not registered/logged in. I’ll ask him to take a look.

Well done Tom!

Megan is right. For a first effort this is great, and a neat design.

All 40 of the bookcases in my house are butt-jointed and screwed together at the corners – this made flat packing them to move from England to the US a piece of cake.

As for the pop-up comments guys, like Flash PW’s pop-ups don’t show up on an iPad, so they won’t last long. Everyone is busy reworking their sites to go in the mobile direction, and I expect Popular Woodworking will be doing the same.

“took like a Kentuckian to bourbon”? That’s not hard to do… Life along the Bourbon Trail is quite enjoyable… the leaves have been turning pretty colors, too…

I agree – that pop-up is a real nuicance! We all know you sell stuff, and we buy it when we want it. It would be nice if the pop-up was gone.

Hi Tom, welcome to the ICDT community. Good job! But – can you tell me why there is a double thickness of wood used for the central side of two cubes? I think it would look better with a similar thickness along each side. Your thoughts?

Megan, that central obstructing pop-up is a real pain. I suspect many of us check the PW blog site every day and having to kill that pop-up every time to see your latest is a nuisance. If you cycle among Chris’ blog and the editors’, you have to kill it every time you return to the home page. Using the site is not convenient when seeing the page is difficult. I wonder if it turns off more devotees than it attracts new subscribers or sells Roy shows, etc. We don’t want to harsh your mellow but could you folks just turn it into another conventional ad along the side? Thanks. We’re with you.
