Hi folks,

I have become aware of an error in my article in issue 79, pertaining to the 4-way splay layout. The error is in a calculation detailed on page 8, and results from applying an incorrect multiplier.

Anyone who goes through the steps to make the sawhorse, as detailed in the article, would likely spot it. My apologies for any confusion that may have ensued as a result - neither I nor any of the proofreaders spotted the problem prior to publication.

Anyhow, if you are contemplating making the splayed sawhorse, Japanese style, then please feel free to contact me and I'll show you the mistake in question and clarify things as need be.

Cheers,

Chris
