Are You A Member Of Lumberjocks?

I'm a member and visit the site maybe once a week to look at pics. A lot of sugar coated "at-a-boys" and not much technical info. Still, a great way to see what others are doing.

Their tool reviews section is setup pretty nice. I haven't really seen anything to equal it thus far

ha ha, I like that... I've always called them drive-bys, but I like this more better...

I think the fundamental problem with LJ and some other forums is that little ticker under the avatar: post count. Some people will consciously or subconsciously post anything as a reply to bump that little number up. Two other forums I'm on don't have that problem dispite the post count being displayed, but once a couple people start the "run for the post count" contest, others join in and -poof- you've created LJ.

Thing is, LJ has great reviews and some stunning projects. I read the email newsletter to know what's a hot topic and go look sometimes; keeping up with the daily drive-bys, though, uh... no.

BTW, nice avatar :)

I'm also a member and frequenter of lumberjocks. The sharing of projects and tool reviews are very helpful for beginners such as myself. The wood whisperer forums have always been much more helpful as far as fair discussion and technical information in my opinion.
