books to me are the next best to working in the shop

this is a very cool idea

I am sure that i am not alone on this one, but so many things to make and so little time. yet another thing that i have wanted to make

this is a very cool give away. i think a good way to learn is from seeing how it was made in the past.

vey cool looking bax. it would be realy cool to see some consruction details. is looks pretty hard to build. or am i missing something

I am not sure about others, but one of the reasons i started woodworking is the beauty of the different types of wood. In my opinion there is no ugly wood just different. As far as art furinture and fww, i guess that is why there are different magazines for each of us. it is not that i do not like sculpture, it just not my prefference. i have seen some very wild things and wondered how they were put together and how to use them. i guess that is why some of it is painted, to cover screws and nails and other types of joints. most of things of style go in circles as things go in and out of fashion. one last opinion i am not sure if there is anything to this, but why do people still recreate 18th century furniture? maybe that is why they call them classics. no one opinion is wrong just different.

that is very cool. the work looks to be flawless. i think that i might have to try that sometime.
