10% Make, 90% crafts
I respect every way to make things - one of the best conversations I ever listened in on was between a welder and a seamstress. It turns out that any two people who make things, anything, have more to talk about than makers and non-makers. This magazine addresses a wide range. This month, it that range includes: <
>-- an LED clock with solid wood exterior (NO clear panel!), <
>-- a comparison of sewing machines ($500 > $1500 in all ways but price) <
>-- onion skin and turmeric dyes for cloth, and <
>-- hacking a 1960s radio casing into an iPod performance station. <
> <
>Admittedly, the range in this month's issue tends heavily towards fiber-based technologies (go fight it out with a parachute rigger if you think that's for wimps). Projects are graded by difficulty on a scale from "has opposable thumbs" through "Cro magnon (handles fire and tools, but badly)," through "drudge" to "master craftsman" - a scale that tickles me in mutliple ways. The top of this scale barely scrapes the bottom of other scales, like [[ASIN:B000063XJH Fine Woodworking]] or [[ASIN:B00006K8WS Circuit Cellar]], but it meets the need of the audience that it shoots for. Everyone has a level, so I have no problem with that. <

>It's not a cutesy wishbook like Martha and crew. At the same time, it doesn't assume that you have a computer-controlled milling machine and arc welder in the garage. It addresses a niche. If you're in it, then have a blast. And open up a little - the worst that can happen is that you'll wreck that radio that hasn't worked in years anyway. <
