Each issue contains at least two in-depth articles covering a project or woodworking technique.

Guide Review - Review of Woodworking Magazine
Woodworking Magazine is a very well-written, descriptive quarterly dedicated to teaching some of the finer aspects of woodworking. After opening the Autumn 2007 issue, complete with a 16-page set of instructions for building a 19th-century cabinetmaker's workbench, I found it difficult to put the magazine down.
Nearly every issue includes reviews of a specific type of tool, typically followed by an article on how to better use this type of tool. You'll also find an article on perfecting a specific type of finish, letters to the editor, regular columns and reader-submitted tips. Even the back page is loaded with great information, laid out like a reference chart on a specific woodworking topic.
