In our last eZine, Rob channeled his inner curmudgeon into his editorial, and told everyone to "go away, he was busy" -- making Christmas presents. Judging from the amount of feedback we received for that issue, it seems he was likely not the only one with that attitude -- although we did hear from one lonely voice on the other side of that issue. - Editor

"My business has come to a complete standstill. In my case, I believe that everyone is concentrating on Christmas presents rather the furniture. I just felt like putting this out there is all." - Irv Reedy

And one more note: in reference to the reader who wondered in last issue's Q&A section why his mortising cuts were leaving burn marks, another reader suggested maybe he was using the wrong bit. - Editor

"On the burning of the mortise bit: It could be that the bit is NOT designed to make plunge cuts?" - Rich Flynn
