Woodworker's Journal

Woodworker's Journal Review

There are two good ways to tell what audience at which a woodworking magazine is aimed. The first is the type of advertising, and the second is how much skill do the projects expect you to have. It is pretty clear right away that Woodworker's journal server home woodworkers who are already of moderate skill. The advertised 'big toys' run in the 500 to 1500 dollar range, although there are a couple of high end combination machines in the adds as well.

Articles expect you to know how to use the tools of the trade but not sure about the 'best' way to do something. A recent issue makes a study of an intarsia backed high chair with some interesting joinery, and instructions for making a genuinely exotic angle jig for a table saw. Writing is solid and reasonably illustrated, but they devote little space to what you should already know, which can make these projects a stretch for a tyro.

The Magazine is very tool oriented. There isn't a lot of space devoted to hand tools or history. Expect articles comparing nail guns and helping you decide whether stationary or bench top equipment is right for you. However, traditionally manual tasks like finishing also receive their due. I found the Woodworker's Journal suited me quite well, and I expect to continue reading it.

Woodworker's Journal Overview

WOODWORKER'S JOURNAL is designed for all woodworkers (from hobbyists to professionals) looking for new project ideas, woodworking techniques and shop jigs and tips that will enhance their time in the shop. Projects are presented in a detailed step-by-step format with photos and illustrations. A full size pattern is inserted in the middle of each issue. Departments cover joinery, finishing, products, techniques and hardware.

Pastel Journal (1-year)

Pastel Journal (1-year) Review

I accidentally happened upon the August 2005 issue and couldn't believe the cover was a pastel. I have dabbled in pastel recently and quickly snatched this up. There are lots of beautiful photographs of contemporary works with features on the artists' themselves, some of which have step by step photos of how the work was achieved. The downside is that there are only 6 issues per year. The back of the magazine has an extensive listing of pastel courses/workshops/exhibitions throughout the US and internationally, taught by prominent pastelists.

I'm amending this review. I got a subscription and the delivery was horrible. I often did not get issues unless I emailed the company, or they came very late. It seems as if they're extremely disorganized - I'm not sure what's going on, but I did not continue my subscription. Beware!

Pastel Journal (1-year) Overview

THE PASTEL JOURNAL is the only national magazine devoted entirely to the medium of pastel. Addressing the working professional as well as the passionate amateur, THE PASTEL JOURNAL offers both inspiration and instruction. Gorgeous reproductions, in-depth interviews, thought-provoking essays, up-to-the-minute information on workshops, contests and exhibitions, as well as regular columns on professional practice, all help readers become not only better but more successful artists.
