Greetings to all the fine people on this forum -- and bravo-zulu to Steve Coles for his vision and the moderators for their execution. As a “guest” for a few months it quickly became apparent how helpful and friendly the folks in this community are. I read the forum and view the photos in awe of your collective skill, knowledge, and artistry. Though I have no delusions that my own abilities are virtually non-existent in comparison and are but a drop in the sea of over 1000 members. I have lived in NC since 1999 and have been cutting long boards into shorter pieces for many more years than that – and still have all ten fingers! However, the last photo I took was with an instant Polaroid and the only way I know to “post” it is with a thumbtack. Nor would my postage stamp-sized shop be of any interest to anyone. I’m old enough to own a 10ER which still sees almost daily use; and my phone is wired to a cradle, not clipped to my belt. I don’t have a favorite furniture style; before April 1st I thought a domino was a game piece; I still think a roman ogee is something in a Cecil B. DeMille movie; my idea of exotic wood is anything over 3 years old without nail holes that my neighbor gives me; and I have completed many “commissions” – vaguely spec’ed in the honey-do format – which makes me an accomplished mind reader. Nevertheless, I thoroughly enjoy reading the forum and wish each of you success in your careers and many years of enjoyment in your avocation.
