Woo hoooo, yesterday was a very special day:
We have officially reached 10,000 (TEN THOUSAND) projects.
As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words… let’s take a look at LumberJocks road to 10,000 projects:

As a special thanks I’d like to reward following 5 LumberJocks with a $50 gift certificate. These are LJs with the most posted projects so far:
- Dick Cain (168 projects)
- Mark A. DeCou (126 projects)
- Jim Earl (102 projects)
- Kerux (83 projects)
- MsDebbieP (73 projects)
I think that now we can officially label our website as THE BIGGEST ONLINE WOODWORKING GALLERY.
Keep posting your own woodworking creations and keep getting inspired each day.
Thanks! You’re the best ;)

Congratulations you guys and gal you earned it and your projects were fantastic, I feel privileged to have been around to see most of them when you posted them. They were all just great. Karson, you should have been an honorable mention for all the help you’ve given to all of us and things that you have sent people to help them out with their projects, just for the asking. Not to steal anyones thunder. Maybe I should shut my cake hole. Thanks Martin.

WOW!
What can I say? I awoke a little later this morning, & when I turned on my computer,
I had private message, & I wondered who could be sending a message today,
because usually Lumberjocks isn’t very busy on Sundays.
What a terrific surprise to wake up to. I’d like to thank Martin for starting this site,
even though it interferes with my woodworking. LOL
Lumberjocks is the first place I go to in to in the morning, even before my coffee.
A BIG THANK YOU, to the rest of you Lumberjocks out there,
because this couldn’t have happened without you.

I forgot to mention that my wife Barb is a great fan of Lumberjocks.
I think she spends more time on here than I do.
She keeps making my to do list! even longer, when she sees something she likes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I sure enjoy, & appreciate reading all of the comments made on my projects.
I also enjoy commenting on the other members projects.
