Tom helped me figure this out, I won't say what I do for a living. I enjoy reading all your posts and checking out your photo's. I thought I would post a few of my own, just sawing for fun mostly although I am not sure you can really call it fun, Great Excercise Stress Relief, maybe

Is there a story behind those pics? Did you make that nice looking cabinet from wood that you milled? Fill us in! ;D

Nice logs. Where did you get 'em? Are they red Oak?
The logs were sort of free, it was a deal I sort of fell into, a land owner and a logger real nice folks traded me for making something for them ;D I was a bit speechless when I saw how much they were giving me. It was mostly true white oak and some red oak monsters. The land owner is a super guy and said I can have more if I need it. He also said I can walk the timber this fall I am rally looking forward to that. It is an old timber and some of these oaks must be huge judging by the logs. I did build the spice cabinet it isn't done I also am building an ash one. I usually build two of things since it is not much more work. It is time for bedtime prayers so I will continue my tale another time
Night All
I did cut some butternut recently for my BIL the wood carver for this
