    Scott, you have every right to feel proud of what you have achieved. The chairs are magnificient.

If he gets it without working for it; he's a parasite; and if he accumulates it after a life time of hard work, people call him a fool who never got anything out of life."

    First rate work there Wongo

    It must be very satisfying to see the grain and joint pop like that.

    Default assistants

    Scott,
    The only way you are going to use up all that wood in the garage (so you'll need some more timber) is to go into high volume production.
    Why not use assistants?
    There is no law precluding child labour and their little fingers can get into those hard to reach places.
    Couldn't you hold a faux birthday party and have the littlies and their friends assist?
    It worked for dairy farmers in the past.
    Or, you could set up a training school like Rembrandt and have assistants pay you to assist in the sanding.
    You need to start to delegate and expand if you are going to clear the garage.....

    Great work! Rosewood rules, beautiful stuff!

    Default hooray magnificent!!!

    Scott,
    Apparently women suffer post natal depression after a birth and I'm wondering if you will need some support now at the completion of this wonderful project, a niggly feeling of concern....... perhaps an emptiness in the workshop.....

    Some women go onto buying sprees and get shoes and handbags, I'd hate to see you suddenly get the urge to buy more tools or ... timber.. now that you have completed this huge project.

    We're all here to support you mate and to say "Well done'.
    (You have my number if you need to assistance...)

    Greg
