The conditions for reading, quoting and contributing to TL-IQ Journal. Written plainly, the way we write everything else on this site.
Text and annotated photos on the journal are meant for personal reading and bench reference. If you quote a passage, copy a diagram or repost a photo, credit TL-IQ Journal and link back to the original post. Don't pass our walkthroughs off as your own write-up.
Send in a build log, a tool review or a photo and you keep the rights to your own material. By submitting, you confirm it is yours to share and that we may edit it for length, clarity or safety before it runs. We may also decline a piece without giving a reason.
There is no account, login, cart, payment, booking or subscription here. No upload, search, filter or sorting tools either. The only form sits on the contact page and simply passes a message to the site handler, which confirms technical receipt on a thanks page.
Nothing published here replaces your own judgement when you pick up a tool. Speeds, feeds, jig dimensions and material notes are starting points, not guarantees. TL-IQ Journal does not accept liability for how a reader applies a note, and you work at your own risk.
We may update these terms as the journal changes. The current version always lives on this page, and continued reading or contributing after an update means you accept the revised wording. If you spot something unclear, write to us and we will look at it.
Questions about these terms, or about reusing our material, can go to info@tl-iq.com. You can also reach us at +27 86 468 8345, or by post at The Firs, 32A Cradock Avenue, Rosebank, Johannesburg, 2196, South Africa.
