   I'm thinking about joining your video club. Can videos be stored on my computer for viewing later?

   No, at this time you are not able to download the videos and store them on your computer. However, as a premium member you are able to choose from a large library of high quality woodworking videos never before seen on the web. Your premium membership is similar to Netflix, where you are renting the content, but not able to save it to your PC.

   In the coming months we will be adding features where you can “purchase” some of the video segments for downloading and saving to your own personal woodworking library. Watch for this during the summer months.

   Keep in mind that although you cannot download the videos, you can watch them anytime and anywhere on a PC, Mac or mobile device 1 time or 100 times. And, new video tips and techniques, woodworking classes and projects are being added monthly. Be sure to sign up today to receive all the benefits of being a premium member.

   That's a shame, I was hoping you could save them. I'm in the Navy and when i'm out to sea all i do is watch my saved woodworking video podcasts on my ipad...our internet is unbelievably slow when we're away from the pier. You should come up with a "military" deal for those of us that can't scratch the woodworking itch out to sea...also do it soon because I have an 8 month deployment coming up and thats a looooong time if I have to wait 2 hours for a 3 minute video to buffer.

   Ouch - 2 hours for a 3-minute clip? Hate to think what some of the premium videos would take - some of those are over an hour. Having to download the videos each time you want to view them isn't very friendly to most data plans either. Not knowing the download size makes me reluctant to view some of them as I have no idea how big of a hit it'll cost me on my data plan. :(

   But on the upside, the videos I have watched have been good...

   Navarrma,

   Send me your APO or mailing address and I will send you woodworking care packages. Are you able to take any small tools with you? How about availability of wood?

   Watch your six. Thanks for your service to the country. God keep you safe.

   George:

   The videos are great. I like spending time learning about the tools and techniques. Thanks for this. Will you be in Pasadena in October?
