Charlie Belden's Site
CharlieB -- as he's known -- is also an
amateur woodworker and, like myself, an owner of a Robland X31 combo
machine.
UnpluggedShop.com Luke Townley, who runs the site, says his UnpluggedShop.com "is about peace, relaxation, tranquility, art, family, community, and respect for the wood we are working and the place the finished piece will have. That is why we call it Therapeutic WoodworkingT."
Gary Robert's SitesGary -- like myself, a professional librarian with a penchant for woodworking -- runs the Toolemera Press website and the Toolemera Blog. Both sites feature books, trade catalogs, photographs and other ephemera related to early tools, trades, crafts and industries, and discussion. Material is drawn from Gary's personal collection and contributors.
