SmartFlix offers Web rental services for hobbyists
Based on the success of Netflix, a Web-based DVD rental service, a Massachusetts outfit has created a Web rental service for hobbyists, including woodworkers. The service offers a large number of woodworking DVDs, with such notable makers as John Alexander, Sam Maloof, Tage Frid, and Norm Abram. It’s a simple way to learn more about woodworking at home. Each rental costs $9.99 per week. The DVD arrives with a prepaid return packet, so when you are finished, simply pack up the disk and drop it in the mail. For information about rentals, go to www.smartflix.com.
