Thanks for answering Bob’s question on show #571. Like him I, like make crafty type items but feel, like I’m not a real wood worker because I don’t make the fancy stuff. I do watch a lot of Youtube videos as well. Since I , moved to my new property in 2020 I built a 2400 sq ft workshop and filled it with both used and new machines (CNC, bandsaw, table saw etc.) but it seems I build more things for friends and family that are large and furniture type items and I don’t get to spend my little available time (I haven’t retired yet) in the shop making things I am excited about. Thanks for reminding us why we get into woodworking to begin with. I guess I just need to say “no” more often. Thnaks guys.
