The Wood Whisperer Sent Me Here... Who Else Out There Found Lumberjocks from Marc?

I found out about both Lumberjocks and Marc’s pod casts by listening to the Matt’s Basement Workshop podcast. I’ve been a subscriber for a year or so….

I found Lumber Jocks through an internet search while looking for something that I can’t remember now.

-- There are three types of people in the world, those who can count and those who can't!

I’m with you Drew. I came here via his mention of the site a few casts ago. His shows are informative and witty. And the one with the contest and his wife was just hilarious. I told him she would give Vanna White from Wheel of Fortune a run for her money.

Welcome to Lumberjocks and a pleasure to meet you by the way.

-- Better to say nothing and be thought the fool... then to speak and erase all doubt.

I am like Bass, I was searching something on the Internet, and found this site. I am glad I did.

-- Bill, Turlock California, http://www.brookswoodworks.com

I was looking for information on (wood) :-) routers, but through the website comment on the shirt I learned of Marc! Really enjoy his work, and especially the fact that he doesn’t take himself so seriously…we need more of that in the world…

I found out about this site in my Popular Woodworking Magazine last summer.

When Marc announced the winners of the latest LumberJock contest, I clicked on the link and came here. I am glad I did.

I found out through the Wood Whisperer as well. His videos are great, and he also led me to Matt’s Basement workshop as well. He is a great asset to woodworking on the internet!

I found it from wood whisperer as well.is the more woodworking pods outthere?

-- Phil, Chattanooga,TN

There are a couple others also. Neil over at “Furnitology” http://furnitology.blogspot.com/index.html . Woodworking Online by Woodsmith www.woodworkingonline.com and oh yeah there’s Matt’s Basement Workshop www.mattsbasementworkshop.com . The first two are video shows and the last one is mainly audio with the occassional video here and there. Enjoy.

Martin found me doing my own wood blog last summer, when it was much quieter around here… and I’m so happy to have found everyone else here! I’d looked around and had a heck of a time finding anyone else “outthere”... my how much things have changed in a year!

I was searching for a Leigh Jig forum. I found this one instead.

like scottb, Martin found me. I try not to think of him as a stalker… but then again I’m not complaining he found me either!!

I found the woodwhisperer from being here. Marc’s podcasts are some of the most informative and interesting woodworking shows I’ve ever seen. I love that guy! ...in a totally innocent manly sort of way of course!

the same as scottb and darryl. Martin found me in the early days of lumberjocks. It’s amazing how the site has grown and evolved.

I was at work listening to public radio on my XM radio and heard a program about an internet encyclopedia “wikipedia”. Looked up woodworking and presto here I am!

Yep – I first found out about this site by watching Marc.

I found LumberJocks from Woodshop News almost a year ago.

I found it via Marc. Although, I found it before the episode.

I love the sense of community we have established between our sites. A post like this makes me feel like we are really creating something big. I have had comments from people in the past that they are surprised by how much I promote my competition. I quickly explain that they have it all wrong. We are all in the same boat and working toward the same goals. The more exposure, the better. There are so many “potential” woodworkers out there who just need that little bit of inspiration and awareness for them to realize their inclination toward this hobby. And with fewer and fewer schools teaching industrial arts and shop, its even more critical that we all share our knowledge. By cross-promoting, we increase the chance that anyone who looks for us will find us, even if they didn’t know they were looking for us in the first place! :)

I found it via the wood whisperer podcast too… found the wood whisperer through my woodworker’s club (AAFW)... found the club through my local hardwood supply. Thanks Marc for passing the information on. Lumberjocks rock.

I recently watched a podcast on Photography and a group of photographers were talking about the same thing – promoting the competition. They said that “old school” kept everything to themselves, trying to be better than the other guy and the new school (their school, anyway) was to support each other and they would send customers to other photographers rather than keeping them to themselves. This way they became better photographers, a stronger group, they could focus on their own style, and they each were able to learn from each other rather than trying to step on them.
This is the way of the future and it’s nice to see.

Bump… Figured after the most recent podcast showing us how to put our shop videos on here it was worth checking again.

I found out about this site last November from the Woodwhisperer site. I think I found out about the Woodwhisperer site from Taunton’s Fine Woodworking site, and so on and so on.

Found out via the Woodwhisperer,

I located LumberJocks through The Woodwhisperer site, in a search for…..?

-- Carpe Lignum - Seize The Wood,

marc sent me here. I’m stunned how often I check out mark’s sight hoping he has posted another pod cast. I’m stoked to see him down in Vegas

Marc and Matt for me as well. Furnitoligy is awesome as well.

-- Jerry L.

I too arrived here because of Mark and Matt. Both potcasts rock!

I saw him there… totally fun!

I actually found Marc through a fellow Woodnetter when I was looking for someone to finish a large conference table. I gave Marc a call, he called me back (the only one) and through our conversation on the phone he mentioned his website and it was on his website I found a linky to LJ:)

I found LJ after hearing about the Shop Tour Challenge on Marc’s site. I heard about Marc’s site on woodnet forums.

-- You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation. (Plato)

I found LJ through TWW as well. I found Marc through Fine woodworking’s site.

I am here as well through TWW, and now I am a loyal disciple and WhisperHead!

I came because of an article in “Fine Woodworking.” This is how I found Marc.
