    Diane is obviously a very talented woodworker. I have built homes for 30 years and some of them very large with amazing detail and yet I wouldn't have a clue what it would take to build that beautiful dresser. Great Job and thanks for letting us tour your shop.

      I love my ducting but an unexpected consequence came up when making that video. It impacts lighting layout. I'm guessing using 6" pipes exagerates the issue. It was never an issue until I started recording video-- the camera needed more light. Fortunately I'm able to add lights where needed. Good luck.

Theres no need to reinvent the wheel when someone else already has. we all have to same problems, layout, storage, organisation, dust collection. Lumber storage. It's great to see how other people have solved these problems. Saves me from making many expensive mistakes. I'll definitely check out those other community tours. Great work mark, can't wait to see your new shop evolve.
