One of these days I'll make something that's not a present for someone and get paid for it.

My daughter married her childhood sweetheart, now my oldest granddaughter is lovestruck, I said you better get the cradle ready. I built one for both my daughters and 1 for a sweet girl who was a friend of my oldest. I'm making her husband a flag holder for his father's flag and she said I'm giving the cradle to Sandra's kids because it has your name (barg brand) on it. I told her hell no, that's for you and your family.She must. She is the most patient person I know or she wouldn't have been able to put up with me for so long. We were high school sweethearts and have been together ever since. We now have three grandkids running around and a fourth on the way. Time does go fast. A good woman is hard to find - and a patient one even harder
So the cabinet doors were elm, that's some nice looking wood and you matched the patterns well. I've worked a little with pecan, walnut, cherry, and a few types of oak, for some primitive bed frames, headboards, benches, and picture frames - nothing as fancy as what you've done by any measure - and notice each type of wood has its own quirks and qualities. I've never tried elm, I'll have to keep that in mind if I ever go nuts and start a wood working project again.

Indian Joe, you'll appreciate this chore I've got next on my list. I'm building a fish cleaning table for a friend who gave me 2 trailer loads of 16' logs to put on lake limestone for their their dock. I like to leave a good groove for the fin to fit in for filleting.

Hi my friend,
you been busy making some beautiful stuff. I know that your fish table will be great, I use a stump, lol because I use mostly my hands to hold and skin the fish. Fishing this year needs to improve since they drained the lake last couple of years ago and the catfish have not quite recovered but are still coming in the baskets.
