Congratulations Alan! I liked the judges' comments, which basically came down to "This guy is nuts, we like nuts". You need to make a video walk through of your shop one of these days.

You ROCK!

Congratulations Alan, it is nice to see you getting recognition for your hard work and ideas. I guess a Woodcraft shopping trip will be in your near future :wsmile:

Thanks! I've been leafing through the WC catalog all evening. :eusa_danc I've been thinking of finally building a traditional woodworking bench so will need a nice Veritas face and maybe a dual screw end vise! One thing about woodworking, there are no shortages of places to put your money. Does Woodcraft in Raleigh stock 8/4 hard maple?

Congratulations, Alan! All those beautiful Oak cabinets and your innovative shop features have garnered some well-deserved kudos! Well done!

Yes. I have a board from there. They liked it a lot ($$) but if you have a gift certificate it would not be as painful.

BTW, thou rockest much! :icon_thum:icon_thum :eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap

My fav comment:

Of course features like those are beyond the pale for most woodworkers, who won’t have the engineering savvy, budget, or patience to install them. :icon_thum

 

[Joe Scharle]

Well earned!

[Bob Buchholz]

As good as the write-up, pictures and the judge's comments are, they really don't do your shop justice.

Congratulations!

 

[Splinter]

Congratulation Alan. All that hard work and innovation paid off. Nice to see someone local and also a NC WW'er win a contest.
