Betsy looks like you may be worth your weight in gold – very nice work !
I always admire all projects I see but I especially admire those where
the woodworker has that third dimension of also being an artist.

As soon as I get my cabinet projects over, I’ll buy a lathe and will bother you
for some pointers – those pens and cutting boards are on my to do list ;)

Great job, Betsy. You built a couple of nice pieces and the auction brought in money for a worthy cause. Sounds like a winning combination to me.

Since your projects did this well maybe you should consider going pro! :)

-- With God's help all things are possible- even woodworking. Woodworking is not just a hobby, it is an (expletive deleted) expensive hobby.

A big blessing for the church! ( not the $600…your skills!)

27000 peso! That pen could pay my living expenses for 2 months!

Could you send those people to Lake Tahoe this summer ? I have a feeling I might need them this year. They really like your beautiful work … way to go Betsy !!!

Thanks guys. It sure makes you feel all warm and fuzzy to do something for others. I’m not sure how much was raised overall last night but it will all go to some good community ministries. We distribute literally tons of food every month to over 60 agencies as only one example.

I admit it does a lot for my confidence to have folks oh and ah over something I make – so it does good in a lot of ways.

You should all try it!

Thanks again.

Very nice. Wow that is really saying something, that kind of money. Too cool!
