FineWoodworking.com launched a brand-new homepage for Online Members today. It’s designed to help members find out about the benefits of membership. This month Fine Woodworking is offering a free book download for Online Members only. Visit the new page for details on how to download it.
The Handplane Book by Garrett Hack is the perfect book for the season since November seems to be Garrett Hack month. We just launched a new video workshop with him, Build a Small Tool Cabinet, he was on the cover of our latest issue, and we just released plans for his brand-new workbench project. Read all about the workbench in an article, buy the digital SketchUp plans, and get a tour of the bench in a video produced by senior editor Thomas McKenna.
The Online Member page also lets you know about monthly giveaways. This month five lucky Online Members will randomly be selected to receive one of these prizes from Jet: a 1000 CFM Air Filtration System, a Benchtop 12-in. Drill Press, a Bench Top Mortise Machine, a Compound Miter Saw, and a 14-in. Bandsaw.
The new page also keeps you in the loop about upcoming members-only videos and Fine Woodworking events. Not an online member yet? You can still view the page to find out what’s new for members on FineWoodworking.com: https://www.finewoodworking.com/member

This is great, thank you very much
The download link isn't appearing on my online members page. Is it possible to have it sent to me some other way ?
You need to click on the image that says "Download Now." Then, you need to log in and you'll be able to download the book. If you're not a member, you can buy the book via this link: http://store.taunton.com/onlinestore/item/the-handplane-book-garrett-hack-ebook-077998.html
Because of our Holiday Sale, you can even get 25% off.
The download image does not seem to be working. Nothing happens. I'm logged in and am unable to download "The Handplane Book."
I joined as a member to access this book. A couple weeks ago, I clicked the link and it seemed to work, but I didn't have a chance to actually read it. Now, I can no longer find the link.
Where can I find the The Handplane Book for download today? I'm definitely logged in and accessing the /members page.
Thanks!
Can't find a working link to download this. Have been fiddling with your "download now" link for half an hour and nothing works. What gives?

i'm having similiar problems in that i can't get the link to work. could you send me the link some other way as well.
thanks

I'm trying to download as well. can you send me a working link for the download.
What happen to the free hand plane book? Go to the member home page and it is not there. Has it been discontiuned?
Hey Gina, the image DOWNLOAD NOW is no longer active and I am a paying member. So where's the book?
I am unable to use the link as well
Was away all of November and would definitely like to be able to download the book.
Gina,
I have been trying for at least three weeks to download Garrett's book with no luck. I just get a broken link response. I was hoping that I wouldn't have to bug you about this, you already have your plate full. Please help me with this, I have been looking forward to reading his book.
Thank You,
Taigert
hi just wanted to see if there's any update on where this link actually is? Would love to see the book, but I feel like I should cancel my subscription if it's not actually available, just on principle, you know?
Hi folks,
I posted this more than a month ago.
The Hack book was the free giveaway for members for the Month of November. Now it's a free plan that members can download.
Sorry for the confusion.
Gina
Gina,
I can't download "The Handplane Book" by Garrett Hack. I'm a member--have been for some time. I logged in first. Anything you can do to help me?
Thanks,

Ok where might one find this free plan for the handplane book? Don't see any buttons labeled "free plans"

I typed "free plan handplane book" into the search bar, it took me to a link, and that link brought me back here. Still no way to download it. What's up?
Gina, when are you going to fix this link?
Well Gina I am a fully paid up member and I have not yet in several tries over several weeks been able to download this. I resent the implication that those of us who are having trouble on this site are carrying less than a full load.
What? No ability to download this book now? I don't understand why it even has this page in existance if it's not available. It says Special Offer to ALL members with no comments about any dates and yet gives you no link to go to. Kind of a false advertisement if you ask me. And I see nothing about any plans either. Not sure where you're going with that comment. Whats the deal yo?
I share the frustration of others in not being able to download this. I don't understand why FW staff seem to be paying no attention to this issue, even after it is brought up numerious times. What goes?
Trying to download Garrett Hack's handplane book available for free to all members. Cannot get it to work. Could you please fix the link to this offer. Thanks,
A loyal customer
I just joined based on the fact that you are still advertising a free download of Garrett Hack's book. You need to honor your advertising commitment. Otherwise you are guilty of false advertising.
