This is almost as much fun as a roll in the hay. If I disappear from time to time….I am trying to build this stuff. There is too much here…how do you people find time for all of this? Oh, I live in Truckee and the shop shot up to a great 44 degrees today !!!

Hi Odie,
I was just reading Martin’s blog on new rules.
I just noticed that you don’t have your website on your signature.
You should do so, if you want it to be noticed.

Congratulation on your Anniversary as a Lumber jack. I love your work ,i am very impress. I really love those boxes you made with the dovetails. I am wanting to purchase a incra Ls positoning system and i want your advise. I saw something you wrote about it. I just can’t find a lot on the web about it except a couple of videos of a guy showing a little about it. Thanks.
