To my fellow woodworkers, I wanted to look back at one of the first and largest toy manufacturers in America at the turn of the last century Morton Converse. The historic tribute video can be found at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYua1FEVefs . You can follow his tradition by making a toy for your child or donate your efforts to children in your community. -- Thanks to the Wood Spirit, Tom Have created over 20 videos on numerous woodworkers as a tribute to their craftsmanship, their unique style, or new innovation. These videos have been posted to YouTube under Hoosierwoodcraft. Would like to use this space to talk about new stoies I am developing. These Notes link you to those videos

very kool video Tom. It’s amazing how different things are now-a-days. I’m only 56, and a lot has changed in my lifetime. It will be “the Jetsons” for sure in the future I believe

Hey, great video. I enjoyed it. Amazing how different a child’s life is today. I just picked up some crayons at walmart this evening.

Tom, Another really great video and a subject even closer to my heart then the history. I love to make toys and games for my daughter and others.
