From arguments to passions

Not everyone here always agrees, but I have found they are willing to accept your ideas without being judgmental.

Religion and politics are topics of conversation which always seem to stir up a big cloud of drama. JM$0.02.

-- Ciao, gth.

Of course half of us won’t talk to you is you support Dewalt. The other half if you support PortaCable. The we have a few who only use hand tools. Which we will tolerate if they don’t talk about it and keep in behind closed doors….and welcome to LumberJocks!

This is a relatively drama-free site. It’s quite refreshing, really.

-- You're a unique and special person, just like everyone else.

WELCOME!

Lumberjocks is a very uplifting site.

I’m with the others here in that you won’t find much, if any, judgemental entries in this forum. It really is quite a fun place to be. There have been a few times that I’ve looked at a project and thought that it really didn’t look good. There were things that they could have done better. Before I opened my mouth, I realized that it isn’t a competition here, although there are a few contests. Not everyone is an expert and we want to encourage woodworkers, not criticize them. This is a place to get help and share ideas. What a great place…welcome.

Now I am in a quandary of whether I like walnut or cherry better! It probably depends on the project. I do like Dewalt cordless tools, but I’ll take a Porter Cable router over a Dewalt any day. I am sure others will disagree. Tough. They all create sawdust. :)

So…....who you votin’ for…..just kidding. There are a nice bunch of people around here.

Yes, LumberJocks is a friendly place. And, I think that’s because the folks here work to keep it that way. The only real drama in my time was the “Painted Walnut Incident” aka PWI, but we try not to talk about it.

Welcome to LumberJocks.

-- When you give someone a chance it may well be their last.

Well stated. You are going to fit in well around here. Once again, welcome.

-- My favorite piece is my last one, my best piece is my next one.
