This past weekend, the Woodworking Show came to the Florida State Fairgrounds in Tampa. As if you had to ask… yes, I was there all day Saturday. I was on the floor before the show began, Tweeting like a madman. While I was there, I didn’t buy anything, but I did get a look at some great products and educational programs. Here’s just a little peek at some scenes from the floor…

The woodworking community should thank their lucky stars to have an experienced craftsman and accomplished presenter as an ambassador in you, out there.
Your expertise in the craft is only exceeded by your amazing ability to present it in a fun and enlightening way.
It was great hanging out with you and all the other heavy-weights there on Saturday.
Thanks for everything you do for all of us.
