I have been a visitor to Instructables approximately 6000 times in the past 11.5 years. My channels of interest were - Technology, Workshop, Outside and Home. Every day I noticed between 10 - 30 new Instructables posted. I have followed bekathwia's advice and I have now seen less than five new posts in the last two days. It could well be that I don't understand the instructions. If so it may very well be that others may also misunderstand them.I have enjoyed the many efforts put toward making this site what it has been and hope I can continue to do so.When television first came on the scene, there was an abundance of quality content. As advertising became the driving force, the quality fell. I see that the same is happening to much of the internet. It seems to be the natural evolvement ...

As advertising became the driving force, the quality fell. I see that the same is happening to much of the internet. It seems to be the natural evolvement or devolvement of technological discoveries.If this site continues to be difficult to navigate, I will by nature, find other pursuits. I must say though, that I can only appreciate the information I have gleaned from this site and the many posts from people proud of the projects they are contributing. I will continue to try learning the new setup, but if not successful, I will simply check back from time to time.Remember the saying - "The optimist says, ""the glass is half full." The pessimist says, "The glass is half empty." I consider this addition to be important to me - "The realist says, "The glass is always full."Abraham

I have started to look for an alternative site. -https://wikifab.org/wiki/Accueil- seems to be the closest I have found so far.

bekathwia This is the same response you have posted previously. The point being made by the posts is that this is not an adequate answer. I have been involved in several website creation projects, several of which are very successful. The work that it takes to maintain the Instructables site is likely extensive and I applaud all those involved.I noticed, and you may also have noticed that many of the posts on this page, are by regular site users. The recurring theme has to do with the lack of access to new posts as an option on a page that can be readily accessed, possibly by using a bookmark. Having a "Featured" option is a nice touch, but for regular users it might not be high on the desired list. Having accessed this site on a twice daily basis for more than 10 years, I now...

Having accessed this site on a twice daily basis for more than 10 years, I now find myself at a loss as to the purpose of my visit. The site has necessarily gone through some changes over the years, but this change is truly baffling.I hope the users that have taken the time to post feedback about this change will be noticed.Abraham

I guess my enjoyment has changed. I will wait to see if there are still site updates to come. I enjoyed browsing the latest Instructables in four categories. This has been a big part of the reason for my accessing the site regularly (twice per day). I am extremely grateful for the wonderful information that has been passed on this site over the years. I do hope the site is in transition to something easier to navigate.Thanks for the many hours of dedication the many have put into making this site what it is.Abraham

I tried your suggestion and I got along great. Change is inevitable in anything that is alive. Keep up the fine work.Thanks.

Nicely done. Thanks.

Very nice simple idea that can be used in many situations. Thanks.For a thin kerf on the table saw, I use a 7 1/4" by 1/16" kerf blade. On the occasions I need a deeper cut I change to a 10". This wastes less when I'm cutting precious wood.

You got my vote! Nice work and ingenious application.Thanks.

This is one of the most intricate projects on Instructables and you have made a thorough set of instructions to go with it. Very impressive.I voted and hope you win.Thanks.

Very good idea! This is on my tools list.Thanks.

My electric has been my back-up. With this method, I might use it more.Thanks.

Well done. Nicely detailed Instructable.Thanks.

This style of airplane is my favorite. I learned of it from "The Great International Paper Airplane Book" written by Jerry Mander and first published in 1967. I once bet 25 cents on it being an awesome long distance flyer. It is plane 18 in the book.

Are you planning to show details of the the electronics? Did you buy or build them? Are they the original electronics?

Interesting idea. What are some potential applications?

Quite a beautiful and talented work. Thanks.

Unique and very well done.Thanks.

I am somewhat saddened by your continued absence as I always looked forward to your creative Intructables. By far the majority of the Instructables posted are enlightening and yours are among the tops. I for one would be thrilled to see you shining more of your wisdom on these pages.I am hoping,Abraham

Now my small scavenged steppers have a purpose. Thanks.

This is the last step in my quest to drink personalized coffee on a budget. I just adjusted the plates in my $40 Black and Decker Grinder from .023" gap to about .002". It now grinds coffee roasted in a Swissmaar Alpenrὄst $27.50 at auction, for brewing in a Saeco Via Veneta.Thanks.

I have tried my hand at carving and I must say, nice example for a great Instructable. This would make a good entry in the "First time author contest". Thank you.

200 blocks. How long did the project take?

Getting out of the gravity well is a great challenge for expansion into space. Very nice project. You have succeeded by learning. Thanks.

A 1/4" x 15" drill bit is more than a couple of bucks.

Nice idea. Thanks.

I have built several of these. Less expensive and more reliable than some import units. One of my imports did not work, and when i did an autopsy, it turned out to be dangerously wired internally. Thanks.

Well done fix. Thanks.

For beekeepers, a swarm has a monetary value and it represents a new honeybee colony. A nucleus or starter hive costs in the neighbourhood of $150, so a swarm is a welcome catch for a beekeeper. I currently have one hive and would gladly increase by catching a swarm.

Thanks for the Instructable.

Very useful. It seems that adding a laser cross at target would enhance your tool.Thank you for this idea.

Very useful for plant management. Thank you, and looking forward to further developments.

Well done. Thanks.Will you be attaching the test results?

Creative and innovative. Very nice and looking forward to the build Instructable.Thanks.
