Had this one all figured out but...day late and dollar short...story of my life. Well maybe I didn't have it quite figured out until I got OWW's clue. ;D

Had Jeff, ya outa have an initiation rite...anybody that posts has to have a square up on your ceiling. Guess you could make an exception for FDH...he has the right intent. :D :D :D :D :D

Yahoo! 8) 8) 8) 8) I love woodworking! Drawing the plans now for a 24X40 woodworking shop with a finishing room added on. Been a dream for years. Got a digital camera for Christmas, now I just need to tackle the posting thread. I hope to let y'all join me during the whole process. Don

Good addition Jeff! I don't do as much woodworking as I use to, but love seeing some of the beautiful stuff people here have built. Patty should probably be a mod.

Brad_S. · January 10, 2007, 03:17:45 PM

Great addition.

I should have known when I saw Ianab was moderating, he's one of the few at WoodNew whose posts I consistantly agree with. ;D

Feeding my woodworking hobby was the reason I bought a sawmill to start with. I don't have much time for ww anymore because of the sawmill, but I still enjoy it when I can.

This will be a favorite stop for me even though I havent stepped into the closet yet. I am the supreme wanna-be ww.

Great idea 8)

Have loved woodworking all my live... Took all the shop classes in high school they would let me... At 18 ys. old went to work in a foundry pattern shop... Was the most rewarding job I ever had... Have always had a home woodworking shop...

Thanks for the new board, Jerry

You just got tired of movin' misplaced woodworking threads..... ;D ;D ;D

getoverit · January 11, 2007, 11:23:34 AM

GREAT idea Jeff!

I'm kinda leaning towards spending the long hot summers inside doing woodworking, so this forum should fill a good need for me ;)

Jeff · January 11, 2007, 05:28:57 PM

I tink the Porcupine Press is like reading a copy of dat old GRIT magazine, only yooperized. :D

Don_Papenburg · January 11, 2007, 10:37:09 PM

And second prize is a years subscription to the yupper magazine ;D

pigman · January 11, 2007, 10:45:25 PM

Good addition to the forum. 8) Now I won't have to search all over the forum on how to build furniture the correct way. ;) I tried to build furniture in a closet once, but by the time I got all the cool tools in the closet there wasn't any room to work.

SwampDonkey · January 12, 2007, 06:50:50 AM

pigman, I'm still trying to find pics of that pecan bed, but all I see it white space. ;D In the computer business, it's what they call 'vapourware'. :D ;)

Stephen1 · January 12, 2007, 09:32:53 AM

great idea, it will be a pleasure to see what everyone is working on. It might even give the rest of some motivation to finnish some projects.

Todd · January 12, 2007, 09:50:39 AM

I think this is a great idea! Lately I've noticed that being surrounded by wood all the time, and trying to make a living at sawing and selling lumber, that I've lost an appreciation for what this wood could be. Every now and then I find I need to go look through some furniture stores or woodworking magazines to get the imagination going again and stop seeing the piles of wood, but the possibilities therein.

TexasTimbers · January 12, 2007, 11:12:26 AM

I don't know I could have possibly missed all this activity on a new section. Heck I missed the section period! Didn't even know it was here til today! that's me though always the last to notice. :

No never mind . . . we have a woodworking section!!!! Yahooooooooooooooooo!

8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

Thanks Jeff and all who were responsible for the leap!

woodsteach · January 13, 2007, 04:35:47 PM

Kevjay , I missed it also... Here I sit looking at HD looking for a cheap bathroom vanity while reading the forum woodworking site :-\. I agree with Todd, with logging, sawing, and teaching woodworking, I've kinda lost the desire to build... Until this am watching the Yankee guy build a table that hung on a wall and wham back to finishing up some projects. Then this site will help keep the inspiration going.

Thanks Jeff

Is a porcupine press anything like a cider press? And just what do you do with porcupine juice?

Enquiring minds want to know.

Jeff

SwampDonkey · January 14, 2007, 01:25:25 PM

:

I Dunno Striker, but Robert_R presses skunk juice. I think you could sell just about anything. I'm gonna start a walnut husk juicer and sell that. ;D :D J/K

pineywoods · January 14, 2007, 02:37:53 PM

Hey SD, that walnut husk juice ain't a bad idee. When I was a kid, we used to put green walnuts in a burlap bag, beat them up with a hammer, and toss the whole bag into the nearest creek. Makes fish come to the surface where you can dip them up with a dip net. Not as much fun as a cane pole and worms, but beats doing without when the fish don't bite.
