Rick A McQuay 72 Report post Posted October 23, 2014 Mostly I enjoy making something tangible but with woodworking specifically there isn't anything I don't enjoy except when a machine is working correctly. And of course I love the aforementioned throngs of women that follow me as I walk through town with a finely tuned #4 on my hip and dual #8's strapped across my back. There might even be a Stanley 220 tucked in my boot, just in case. Always ready to make quick shavings of any errant lumber that crosses my path. Girls picking up the shavings that trail me everywhere and saving it in their scrapbook. It's like an Axe commercial. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rick A McQuay 72 Report post Posted October 24, 2014 Moody Blues, I like their stuff but my tastes were more heavy back in the day. Now I want to go listen to their albums. - sent via Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tcarswell 67 Report post Posted October 26, 2014 Being called an artist. It still blows my mind my whole life I have barely been able to draw stick figures . But with wood I can create what some people consider art. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
