Best Woodworking Newsgroup / Forum?

[Tom Watson]

I've looked at Knots and Sawmill Creek.

What else is out there and which is the best?

Regards,

Tom Watson

Hello Tom, I recently joined Lumberjocks.com You get to post pictures of shops/ projects, etc and there are several forums. The "welcoming comittee" is quite friendly too. I recommend it. Marc

little Neanderthal stuff. I do like Sawmill Creek but don't visit that often.

T,

I visited both woodweb and sawmill creek for several months and decided on sawmill. I think it was the format that won me over. Content is good on both.

being from someplace other than NC is not usually a problem.

I hope I'm wrong, but I anticipate your departure swan-song, Tom. With sadness.

Perhaps a story, or a soliloquy, at least. I hope.

Let us know where you go, and why. Afterall:

"We know not know where we come, nor why We know not where we go, nor when"

Or something like that.

The best is pretty subjective, Tom. It all depends on your preferences and needs. Sawmill Creek is pretty good but I only lurk - I don't have much to offer. I go to BT3central.com a lot. It's probably too elementary for you (BTW, outstanding work you do) but they are a very social group. Best of luck.
