The Austi. Hardwoods
Franchising Progral ...
A SUCCESS STORY
LubboCk
Franchise Owner. Galen Carr
Carl Lasner
of
Austin Hard
w
o
o
ds
50
years old,
faced with an opportunity to finally become my own
boss in a field I love. All I had to do was start over in
the middle of my life. You had better believe that I ex
amined their newly developed program pretty thorough
ly. Since Austin Hardwoods already had Texas stores
in Austin, Dallas, and
When
I
first saw the
Austin Hardwoods
franchise ad,
I
have to admit it sounded
too good to be true. Having been an
engineer for thirty years,
I
tend to take
a good hard look at things.
Well, we received Galen'S application
and talked
on the phone a few times with
him right after the ad came out-and we
were very impressed. But since he was
interested in Lubbock, Texas,
I
had to give
some serious thought as to whether or not
a franchise could be a success in a city
that small.
EI
Paso, I knew them by reputa
tion. The fairness of the program is startling compared
to most franchise arrangements. I saw an opportunity
to quickly acquire all the benefits of their years of ex
perience and to be under the guidance of an obviously
very successful company.
After some research, we realized that Lubbock was a
flouri shing area with a major university and a military
base. It was also important, of course, that Lubbock was
the hub of a much larger trading area than iust the
city itself.
We explained the training and explained the benefits
of volume buying to Galen. We also went into some
detail about the interplay between family stores.
I have to say we were awfully taken with the man's
ability and energy. Pretty soon, we both felt confident
enough in each other to make a deal.
Now, less than a year later, I have so much
business, I am tripling my warehouse space_
I own my own business in a field Ilove-hard
woods_ For me, it's a dream come true_ I really
picked a winner_
We think we also picked a winner!
If you are a qualfied applicant, your dream also can come true.

The article on cutting common dovetails in the Eastern Euro
pean way (Sept. '79) brought back memories to me, and
solved a puzzle at the same time. After the fighting end ed in
World War II, my artillery battalion remained in Wurtem
burg and Bavaria for some months, being billeted in various
villages. We ordered some ordinary packing boxes from a vil
lage carpenter one day and were astonished when they came
dovetailed. One of the men I had sent on the box procure
ment mission told me the cabinetmaker cut out the bottoms
of the dovetails with a special saw. I never saw that saw, nor
could I visualize just how it could be made, but every time
since then that I have cut out the bottom of a commondove
tail with a coping saw I have wondered if there might be a
better way-and now I see there is.
In a quiet way it is a thrill to learn something like this. My
stay in Europe made me a devotee of the frame saw, but I
never got full ad vantage of that tool until I read the article by
Tage Frid that ad vocates filing all saws for rip, straight across,
and not even turning the blade around . That works
beautifully, so well, in fact, that I wonder who ever decid ed
to file crosscut teeth on the diagonal.
-William G. Raoul, Lookout Mountain, Tenn.
of the White House. I was told that until 1945, the eagle on
the presidential seal faced toward the left, toward the arrows,
for unknown reasons. In 1945, President Truman changed
the seal so that the eagle faces the olive branch. There are no
plans to turn the eagle's head in times of war.
You've published some sensible articles on the mortise-and
tenon joints. One point about the wedged or tusk tenon.
Relieve the ed ge of the mor
tise slightly in these two
places-else the wed ge may
catch and split out the top or
bottom of the mortise. A
small matter, but the pres
sures that build up against
the wed ge during insertion,
removal and expansion of the
major member are tremen
dous. During some classic humid Baltimore summers the hor
izontal wed ges in mydining table are literally shot across the
room by the expanding pedestal ...
-John D. Alexander Jr., Baltimore, M.
...Regarding the great seal on the Resolute desk (Letters,
Sept. '79), I had thought that the eagle is portrayed looking
toward the olive branch in peacetime, and toward the arrows
in wartime. I had also noted that a carved eagle on the out
sideof Hamilton Hall, in Salem, Mass., looks toward the left,
toward the thirteen arrows. Hamilton Hall was built from
plans by the noted Salem architect, Samuel McIntire, in
1805. So, I got curious and checked with the curator's office
Accidents: Five years ago I severed my left thumb while using
a radial arm saw as an overarm shaper. A jig clamp failed and
dragged a piece of oak, with my hand , through a %-in. rab
beting bit at 3 HP. Fortunately, I then lived but two blocks
from a magnificent surgeon who several hours later put the
tattered remains back together and into a cast for many
weeks. It works now but weakly, along with loss of feeling. I
spray finishes
Before you buy a spray gun, ask:
Does it have a range of nozzle
combinations?
This is importanti Binks Model
26

pistol grip) give you a wide choice of nozzle
combinations for spraying finishes ranging
" _.
,\
from water-thin dyes to house paints.
"
Does it have accurate controls?
Models
15
and
26
have convenient,
preCise controls for both spray patten and
needle wear.
Does it have matched accessories?
Binks spray guns do, including a full
selection of air cleaners, hose, cups, air
compressors....everything you need for
superior finishes.
If you like fine tools, you'll love Binks
equipment. For full information see your
