Re: Borrowing Tools
i am facinated by the lack of asertiveness by this whole group, all the way from rogowski to the last one. very few things seem to truly belong to me, like my expensive ww tools, or my guitar, or my prince road bicycle and a few other things that i don't want to list here. everything else,including my truck. my money,etc,etc, seems to belong to my kids or my wife and so on...and i don't mind that i am happy for them, but when it comes to borrowing the few things that i listed up above it is a known fact around here that it is best that they don't even let the thought of borrowing cross their minds...

matt you did a fine job....i like the fluid way you presented the video...very clear...i wish there was videos on how to build some of the period furniture....anyhow now you need a dresser and a night stand.

wow i can't believe how beautiful your low boy looks,i have the same book i got it about 20 years ago and ever since i have been looking at it with the idea of building the same low boy but never believing that my skills were at a level that i could tackle a proyect like this....somehow i feel more encouraged now....when i build mine i know it will have to be out of mahogany...any reason why you built yours out of oak? also do you happen to have any more pictures that show the process of building it? you tube or facebook maybe a video you made?....good luck and enjoy your low boy.

it is hard to believe that a pile of scrap wood would become shuch a beautiful piece of work....i like the clean looks of the design, the choice of wood is great....can you imagine a whole bredroom set for the new baby along the lines of this dresser? wow....if only women would have the pacience to wait!!!

i was inspired by him like alot of other people and i built some of the pieces that he built on the show, also i acquired some of the same tools that he has(like the shopsmith that sits in a corner of my shop colecting dust) .... being so involved in learning from him i never realized that there were alot of other "master woodworkers" i mean real master woodworkers out there... looking back at 20 years of norm's work i wonder if he ever built anything that required more skill than the stuff that he built in a weekly basis on his show....now that he is going to retired he will have the time to do so maybe....it seems to me that in terms of woodworking we are prety grown up and we can go the rest of the way by ourselves or maybe learning from other woodworkers ....i wish norm all the best.
