Shop Notes #1: A Perfect Shop or a Perfect Perspective?

Hi guys (and ladies),
I appreciate the welcome! Very friendly bunch around here, I’ve noticed. I’ve been meaning to join for a whlie now, especially since I noticed more than a couple folks undertook building themselves a Holtzapffel style workbench. I just finished mine in Feb and I’m eager to see how other folks are coming along.
See you in the fourms!

Howdy! Welcome to LJ, the best woodworking community anywhere.
Cool workbench.
I have done a lot of work in Ohio up in Centerburg. The guys at Woodwerks know me pretty well. Tell them Todd from Montana says “Howdy.”

Hi Todd,
That store is about 5 miles from my house. I go there to “relax”, but it’s tough on the wallet. I’ll make sure I mention your name next time. Any chance I’ll get a discount? Heh.
You didn’t work on the “round house” up there did you? It’s a house with no interior corners, from what I understand. All the furniture is built into the curved walls. I’m told the refrigerator can be brought up from the kitchen into the bedroom with a handheld remote. If you did, we probably have a friend in common.
