Bubbe & Gram: My Two Grandmothers
An award-winning children's book for ages 3 to 8, Bubbe and Gram won a 1997 Benjamin Franklin Silver Medal Award for excellence in independent publishing (given by the Publishers' Marketing Association), as well as the 1998 Helen Keating Ott Award for Outstanding Contribution to Children's Literature (given by the Church and Synagogue Library Association). Bubbe and Gram relates the touching story of a child who loves and learns from her two very different grandmothers. Her Jewish Bubbe tells stories about Moses and the Maccabees, lights the Sabbath candles and shares Passover with her grandchild. Her Christian Gram dyes Easter eggs with her granddaughter, recites the Lord's Prayer and tells the Nativity story. Each grandmother shares the love and richness of her own tradition with her grandchild, while still respecting the other religious tradition that is part of the little girl's life. The story includes descriptions of Hanukkah and Christmas, Passover and Easter, and the sabbath preparations of both religious traditions. Children will love being able to identify with the little girl as she explores the traditions and holidays of both Christianity and Judaism. Parents and grandparents will welcome the opportunity to share their diverse and valuable faith experiences with the children in their lives..

Dovetail-Jig Stabilizing Fence: Woodworking Plan
Have you ever struggled to keep boards properly aligned in your dovetail jig? Most jigs rely on a small cam to position the board, but don't provide enough support along the length of the board to prevent racking. Without proper alignment, the dovetails vary slightly in length, resulting in a poor fit. Our dovetail jig fence provides support on both horizontal and vertical planes. And, the fence bars adjust so you can fine-tune them to match your jig setup. We built this fence for a Porter-Cable model 5008 Dovetail Templet, but you can adapt the fence to fit your particular jig. To provide you with a clear picture of what you'll receive when you purchase one of our shop-built downloadable plans, we've provided a brief summary of all the elements that this electronic plan includes:
1. Professional color photography of the finished product taken after we've finished building the project ourselves in the WOOD(r) magazine shop. You can even zoom in on the screen to see those little details.
2. For a clear idea of how our projects go together, we provide an exploded-view drawing with helpful details. All drawings are done professionally by our own staff off woodworkers/illustrators.
3. Large color photos and step-by-step instructions show exactly how we built the project in the WOOD(r) magazine shop. We build each project ourselves to work out any bugs before you ever get the plan.
4. Detail drawings and step-by-step illustrations provide necessary dimensions and machining processes you'll need to make the building process as straightforward as possible.
5. For error free construction, each plan includes a bill of materials; a cutting diagram; a detailed supplies listing; and, when necessary, a mail-order buying guide for hard-to-find hardware.
6. Parts-view drawings are used to dimension individual pieces to guarantee your building success..
