A Spiritual Gift

I hope that Allan and Callum forgive me for not referring to them by name as well. I follow their work and am pleased for what they add to the LJ site.

That’s a neat one, David. Great subject for sure. I really appreciate Todd and all the info he passes out here on the site.

I know I’ve appreciated all the help Todd has given me! Even if I don’t use it on a particular project, I fully intend to use it at some point. It’s just to good not to use ;)

Now that’s really cool….....say alot about giving and the American Craftsman!!!

Nice tribute. Dave.. What is the technology behind the interview and recording?

Hey todd that is way to cool. haha. Ive had a perma-smile for the last 10 miniutes. your right Todd you have indeed inspired me. your words of encouragement have motivated me. you are so good at what you do and you use that in other ways to reach out and help others. i am sure you have influenced and impacted so many other people in the woodworkiing comunity besides just myself. I am glad you like the hand plane. And yes I sand to a high 1,000 grit. I love to burnish everything to get that natural sheen and velvet feel. Have fun with it as I did. I am looking forward to seeing more of your great work.

David your online video podcasts are great man, I love them. I watch them all the time. You and so many other people on this site have so much to offer to hobbyists professionals and beginners. I wish I had the equipment and time to make videos, I would love to do something like that. I would love to do tutorials on shop tips, sharpening or power tool maintenance. So many videos about projects now adays I probably wouldn’t do that. But that is why I like your stuff its very defferent. Todd makes great entertainment as well Anyways thanx for the post. It made my day.
