Has anybody got the volumes of selected articles from them?
 
The reach back to the first issue and I wonder if they contain some really good stuff!?   ???

OMG Richard!, you 'wonder if?'............Ive never heard about anybody who got them that was sorry they did, and IIRC the early editions are out of print. Im really not kidding when I say I need another lifetime, or even 2x to use it all.

So how many of those projects or ideas do you use?  I have built several over the years.

We just went to our 'local' (30mi. drive) Gander Mtn store, they have it on their rack, maybe the others do too?
I never kept track of the projects and tips I put to use one way or 'nuther.......some of the stuff gets a guy to thinkin' and you do something similar but different on yer own. Its all good!

I didn't find the early stuff as interesting as the newer issues.  I had a ton of back issues that I sold at the same time.

Oh great!   ::)  Just what I need!  Something to get me thinking...
 
Sounds like this mag will open up a whole new world of possible statistically insignificant experiments I can perform or new projects I can envision!    :-\
 
Heck boys!  I won't live long enough to complete the ones I got now!   :o
 
can't wait for my first issue... gotta order the compiled sets also!   ;D Man cave I'm moving in!   :P
