What happened to Australian Woodsmith Magazine?
I read an old thread https://www.woodworkforums.com/f11/a...-issues-256289 which mentions #177 was the latest issue of Australian Woodsmith as of 3 months ago. That number is still listed as the "latest" issue on their website. But as far as I can tell it should have been released mid 2023. So unless they've gone to one issue per YEAR, surely issue 178 should have dropped by now.
So what's the verdict/what happened... is it gone? Or it's all back to normal and they just haven't updated the website!? (I haven't been to the newsagent yet to check if they have an issue after #177.)
Australian Woodsmith is no more
I have been in discussions with Paragon Media and they have stated that the company has ceased trading.
I was enquiring about a refund for the 7 issues remaining from my last subscription and was told "The company has ceased trading and has no money to pay refunds. Sorry."
But the ABR still lists Paragon Media as Active and last updated 15 December 2023, so I call on that.
They helpfully provided a link to electronic versions that could supposedly be downloaded, but you can only print them to PDF.
