Wandered Into CT One Year Ago, Thanks Y'all!

basswood

If first stumbled in here last Oct. A year and 1000 posts later and you still can't get rid of me.

Thanks for the welcome, camaraderie, and the sucker punches. This a good place to share the ideas and experiences that can turn the drudgery into an almost fun career as a carpenter. Of course there is a reason they call it "work."

All the best,

Basswood

Gus Dering

I'm glad you are here too, Bass.

You are a good reason to check in here. I enjoy you and your posts.

I feel a group hug coming.

Whenever I get too cocky, I look up one of Bass's posts and am immediately humbled. Well usually!

We love you Bass. A great tradesman who constantly thinks outside the box to accomplish the incredible.

You are quite the welcome individual here Bass. If you're not careful, we'll nominate you to be a mod also

Gosh Gus... Thankee.

I get lots of good ideas from your stuff... if I weren't such a Luddite I could follow in your footsteps.

Cheers,

Bass

Warren, Those are some nice words, but you know I'm not much of a framer... we all have our niches. My niche is to do the weird stuff.

Best,

Bass

basswood

Thanks man. It has been good hangin' out with you too.

Cheers,

Bass

Bass, I think I speak for the majority when I say you are held in high esteem by the members here. You are definitely the Crown King of the weird and unusual. I seem to recall trading a few punches with you several months back. Good times and great fun. Keep the insanity alive and post often.

Thanks, I'm sure I annoy some people, heck I even annoy myself.

Hey, you think I should ask for a raise? We probably have too much fun here to make any money for it eh? Well, right back at you.

Later Man,

Bass

Darwin

Ebbo

I'll be here 15 years next month if you include lurking.

basswood

No lurking, just jumped right in.

dakzaag

You have some serious skill.
