The Language of Wood
....and so i step out of my walled in universe, to view the collective aspirations of the many other’s, who after working throughout the long hours of night, are also standing ready to greet the powers of coming dawn….
—-what is this sound within the confines of my head, that causes me to gather at the sound of a mornings landscape, to view the coming revelations of many hand tooled creations, along this forest of well endowed tree formations…...

Texas Treasures in a BackYard’
Let me start out by saying that I have been slow in getting this blog story going, since the ‘golden oldie’ days of much snow, have once again returned to New England and NH. What that means for me, is that I have been spending days at a time during the weeks of December, January, February and now into March plowing, shoveling and moving snow. In December we started breaking records for snowfall and the first to fall was a long standing reco...

Echo-Friendly Habitat//Furniture Building
....and so as we continue to search and re-fine a name for a website, let us not get caught in a ‘wooden’ box of our own making and in so doing, fail to gather and draw from the world around us, all that is fast becoming ‘echo friendly’.
One of the things to consider today is; are we as woodworkers fast becoming a relic of the past, due in time to go the ways of other dinosaurs that could not merge with what is happening...
