I find myself reading and following certain fantastic topics on the forum, but then have a hard time remembering and retrieving the topic a few days later.  Is there some way to save a forum topic or thread to ones profile to retrieve later?  There are many topics i'ld like to save or archive for later reference when I'm building, repairing, or just great information that you guys bring up. Also saving great layout videos, pictures, and projects for future reference would be a great feature.  Let Me Know?

Is there any way to do this and edit out the irrelevant or repetitive parts of the thread that you don't want?  Sometimes when a thread goes for several pages, a lot of it is people agreeing with a previous post or making some sidetracked comment.  I've done the copy and pasting of text into Word and then printing that out but it can get tedious for a very large thread.

While the bookmark ideas presented above will work, there is another way to do this that lets you save the thread directly to your computer.

 

Over on the right near the top of the thread is a link called "View Printer Friendly Format." Click that, then print the thread to a PDF file. (There are many free PDF maker programs available.)

 

You can then save the PDF file on your computer anywhere you want to, with an appropriate file name that will ID what the thread is about.
