Where are the cats???

 

[commando1]

I have mostly built cabinets and bookselves for myself. I have a long list of things to build from tables to more paneled cabinets.

So the woodworking is a hobby and not a living?

Good question Stan , I thought he was a painer.


No cats Bob, like I said in the previous post I have two cat chasers

Yes a hobby, I will hang interior doors and trim if I am also painting/stain them, but no custom work because the painting keeps me busy (along with a car project).

You have very expensive hobbies ...

My Dad was a private pilot with his own plane. Now that was an expensive hobby. I liked to fly but enjoy cars much more.

Cool, is there an online version of your story in in the magazine? It would be great to read it.

The digital addition isn't posted yet, it just hit the news stand a few days ago. I'll post a link when it's up. I got mentioned in the last issue because one of my clients houses was featured and I built there dining room table and all of there interior and exterior handrails. See if this link works, the table is in the foreground.

the link didn't work the way I wanted it to but the pic is on page 8 and more starting on page 42 if you have a little time to flip through.

That is a beautiful table. What is the wood you used? I hope the exposure in the magazine pays dividends for your business. I know as a small business owner that is gold. Looking forward to seeing your spot when they post it on the web.

 

[polara71]

Are they your handrails on the right?

Table looks incredible, as much as a piece of wood could.

 

[Stormer]

Table is awesome. X2 on what's that wood?

 

[1978 NYB]

Oak or Walnut???
