Trading Post Guidelines

This Forum was created to give woodworkers a place to discuss the exchange of materials and services. Here are the main guidelines:

  • You're trading with friends...which can be both reassuring and risky. Be honest and forthcoming in your descriptions of items or services.
  • Actual negotiation for trades must take place off-line or through personal e-mails.
  • This is strictly woodworker-to-woodworker trades and not for toolcompanyX.com to woodworkers. Commercial posts will be deleted and should be reported to the administrator.
  • To maintain quality control, participation in the Trading Post Forum is for registered Forum members only. Anyone can view this Forum, but only registered members can post.
  • Participants should read the Terms and Conditions listed below.
