I know I will be offering great praise in comments for all the wonderful work I have seen on this site. Thank you all and WOW this is just the nicest bunch of folks ever! You talented woodworkers rock!

Welcome to LJ’s …..
It is a great bunch of woodworkers to be able to bounce ideas off of or to ask questions of.
I understand how some like to paint there wood…and I have learned to give my clients what they want and accept it, however, for me I like to bring the beauty of the grain to the surface. It makes me feel as if I am restoring life to the wood. We are all different with different ideas…That is just one more thing that makes this site great. Looking forward to seeing some of your projects…

Thank you. I am learning more and more about wood and the beauty of it. I have just found out how fantastic orange oil is for cleaning unfinished wood. That probably shows how much I know about finishes! But I DO love unfinished wood. It is hard not to paint rough mismatched scrap wood that you have put together and tried to unify. I guess thats where the painting everything starts. Well that and I am also an artist so painting is second nature to me in a way.

Its very exciting to have the opportunity to learn things from experienced and knowledgeable people such as yourself. Thank you so much for your comment. Much appreciated! :D

Welcome to LumberJocks. Glad to have you aboard.

Thank you so much all. I will post pictures very soon. I love the work on this site! Wonderful!

Welcome aboard. I know what you mean about painting something vs natural beauty of the grain. I made some night stand sized cabinets that were then painted by someone else. (I have been afraid to post them here for
fear of being labeled a heretic.) ha ha. But maybe you could appreciate them (shhh)...
