well this is what i wanted to hear from you all. i agree that there is nothing wrong with this forum. as far as new members and making them feel welcome i think we do a pretty good job. ive never seen a new person shunned in anyway. i personally try and welcome everyone i see and offer my help. i think as a new member rick will say he's been warmly welcomed ? he's a great example of what we wish all new people would do. post content and join in the conversations. not sure what if id change anything about this place. it's nice being allowed to be and talk like adults without some one scolding you. as far as new members i dont care if we add 50k more, id rather get 50 that participate ! big numbers are for crap forums like LJ'S and WWTALK ! so lets keep it going forward.

oh and as for more wood talk all one needs to do is scroll through the list of forums and you'll find a topic on just about anything you want. and if you dont simply start one and im sure many will join in. it's up to all of us to make this forum what we want.

working with my hands is a joy,it gives me a sense of fulfillment,somthing so many seek and so few find.-SAM MALOOF.
