Is there some way available to search the forums using a key word or phrase which is apparently not obvious to me?

I don’t mind looking a little but with all the post, it’s getting difficult to read every subject to find anything. Just trying to limit asking questions that’s maybe been asked before.

The search function is “hidden” behind the magnifying glass in the upper right.

Hope that helps,

Thank You Ecky,

Apparently I must have to be using a laptop for that feature. I normally use my iPhone and the heading you show isn’t available or showing on my cell.

Hello Bill,

sorry that I didn’t try it on a smart phone first.
But i did it now: Login, then choose “Activity” from the three-horizontal-bars-menu in the upper right. The input field for searching is just below the “All Members /My Favorites/Mentions” frame.
Hopefully it’s the same on your iOS phone like on my Android phone.

Thank You Ecky…. I never would have thought to look there to search the forums but precisely what I was looking for.

Tried it out on my previous question about bridle joints and was able to very quickly find and read everyone’s perspective…..popular opinion appears to be that mortise & tenon is the stronger joint, as I suspected.

Thanks again!
Bill
