    Gustav Stickley's "The Craftsman" Available On-line

    A recent build here on an Arts and Craft style coffee table inspired me to order Robert Lang's book, Great Book of Shop Drawings for Craftsman Furniture, Revised Edition: Authentic and Fully Detailed Plans for 57 Classic Pieces. This also prompted a little more research on the topic of this style, where I learned that Gustav Stickley's magainze, the Craftsman, is available on-line. May not be everyone cup of tea, but for those of you interested, you can find the digital archives at: http://digicoll.library.wisc.edu/cgi...rts.HomeDesign. 31 issues published from 1901 thru 1916.

    Now, THAT is beyond cool. Verges on full-throttle groovy.

    Thanks very much, Joe. Greatly appreciated.

    When I started woodworking, I didn't know squat. I have progressed in 30 years - now I do know squat.

    Very cool, and much appreciated! When I was at UGA, the library had originals that we would thumb through.

    Thanks for the link. I am living in a turn of the last century Craftsman home now and look forward to researching it.
