Thanks for the link. I've seen this before but this time it finally occured to me to make a PDF of those pages so I could have it right here on my desktop.

If you don't have PDF-making capability, you can always save each webpage. Just go to File, then Save As, and pick or create a folder to save them in. That's what I did a few months ago.

Hey Buckley,

Great idea about the PDFs!

When I made the document the pictures downloaded at a much larger size, so it is even more of a joy to view. A little tweaking and it will be a fine document to view. I'd post it here but it is about 11 mb in size.

Thanks for the great post. I just find it fascinating to see what the masters do and how they do it! Great stuff!

I got a chance to watch an episode of Dude's DIY show and I noticed that he does his carving and leveling the rim different than what is shown on the posted site. I'd be curious to see the rest of them just to see how much difference there is between then and now in his construction methods. Really great site.
