I had thought that this zine and Nuts & Bolts Worksheet[1] were the same. But there are a few too many differences. First, the Halliday's zinedex [2] only lists one. Second, one has an issue six and seven and other title has them combined. While this wouldn't be too worrisome, I did find a source that lists pages numbers for both. It seems a little strange that they're not the same (though possibly related as noted), there wasn't enough info to determine it at this point. Mrs. Potato Head 20:23, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

Still can't figure out the relationship, if any, between these two titles. I'm so, so tempted to assume they are the same (such an odd name), but again, there are a few too many dissimilarities. One thing, however, is the the discrepancy is cleared up. Karen Halliday's zine index lists a different editor for this, but it has been confirmed from a listing in Who's Who in Star Trek Fandom that it is George Perkins. Perhaps "Mark Behrend" is the editor for the other zine?--Mrs. Potato Head 23:07, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
I have no idea about the zines, I just wanted to say that I love all this original research you are doing. Wikis are such a perfect tool for this kind of thing and it's so much fun to watch all the puzzle pieces come together. :) On that note, there is a part in Boldly Writing on page 25 that talks about an obscure zine called "The Worksheet" from around 1975. Don't know if this helps. --Doro 23:48, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
Studying these original old zines is like staring into the Big Bang and watching as the atoms disperse. And, yes, the wiki is such a wonderful medium for it all. When a stray bit of info slides into place, it's a beautiful thing, indeed. As for "Worksheet," well, I'll go check that clue out. Thank you, Doro, for the encouragement. --Mrs. Potato Head 00:16, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
