Tips for beginning a woodworking business online

The Final Mantels

Classic Dining Room Mantel

You’ll notice that the fireplace is not centered on this peninsula wall. So the family and I worked together to design a mantel that went straight to the wall in the corner. This design is more classic and formal. It’s a very thick top and is screwed upon a French cleat.

Stavoe Dining Room Mantel

Craftsman Sitting Room Mantel

This peninsula wall divides the space into the dining room and a sitting or reading room. From other areas in the house you can see both sides of the peninsula wall, and both mantels. So the family and I wanted the materials and proportions to be the same, even though the style will be less formal in the sitting room. This mantel is also screwed upon a French cleat.

Walnut Slab Family Room Mantel

The last mantel is in another area of the house, the great room – where the kitchen, eating, and play areas come together. This mantel is made to look like a solid walnut slab, but it’s not. There are threaded inserts recessed in the bottom for stainless steel christmas stocking hooks. This was the install I had the most anxiety about, but it slipped into place on cleats very tight and sturdy.

I’m getting caught up in reverse order, the post regarding design and construction will come next.

@DJOfurnituremkr: What is tonight’s topic? #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @tumblewood @tomsworkbench @dyamiplotke @mansfinefurn Can one of you run #woodchat tonight? It’s my daughters birthday.

@RenaissanceWW: @uppercutwood aw c’mon just start off with “pins or tails firs?t” then walk away. They’ll be busy for a while with that one #woodchat

@Tooltutor: So what’s everyone building now that all your new benches are done? #woodchat debating starting a built-in desk build before the nursery

@uppercutwood: Hey #woodchat I won’t be around tonight because it’s my daughter’s birthday, but please have woodchat without me http://t.co/RvI4yfOP

@Tooltutor: Happy birthday to Mrs. @uppercutwood I’ll be absent from #woodchat too. It’s my wife’s birthday.

@DJOfurnituremkr: Looking forward to a walk with Porter in the woods then some time on #woodchat.

@Tumblewood: I’ll see ya there! RT @DJOfurnituremkr: Looking forward to a walk with Porter in the woods then some time on #woodchat.

@ramblinrdesigns: @sharpendwood What I should be using (to transport on the run) or what I really use, because I use a lot of buckets. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: Hi all, what’s the topic tonight? #woodchat

@mamader: evening all #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: Checking in, but may have to leave early. Shop project deadlines are looming. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @mamader Hola #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: Saw a crazy guy on a motorized scooter today…with a labrador between his legs. That was nuts. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: Computer’s running slowly, but I made it to #woodchat.

@ramblinrdesigns: Today’s feed is very slow. Is anybody here? #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: Is there a topic for #woodchat tonight?

@FromTheWoodshop: @ramblinrdesigns yup. was wondering if I was the only one. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @FromTheWoodshop @ramblinrdesigns There’s at least three of us. That qualifies as a crowd, right? #woodchat

@CoolToolShed: evening all! #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: I talk to myself enough during the day, didn’t want to do it at night as well.. #woodchat

@kweinert: I’m here tonight. #woodchat

@HighRockWW: Hello #woodchat small crowd tonight?

@FlairWoodworks: Who’s running the show tonight? Any topic? #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: I’m here for a little while. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: Well, if it’s just us I think the topic for the night is up for grabs? > #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: So do you work on multiple projects at once, or one at a time? I’m a little stretched out on the multi tasking at the moment. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @ramblinrdesigns Definitely multiple projects. #woodchat

@HighRockWW: @FlairWoodworks I was about to ask you the same thing… #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: How often do you take time to modify tools to make them work well for your purposes? #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @ramblinrdesigns typically have 4-5 irons in the fire at any given time #woodchat

@woodshaver101: @DJOfurnituremkr whats up dale #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: Multiple, I have two cabinet on stands I started more than a year ago. Perhaps this will be the year of completion. #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: I sometimes find myself going to bed thinking one through and wake up with another one making the rounds. #woodchat

@kweinert: Right at the moment I’m only turning stuff so it’s pretty single threaded. I have glued up some segmented stuff while turning tho. #woodchat

@HighRockWW: @ramblinrdesigns I usually have one big project and several small. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @HighRockWW For example, I’m currently writing five different blog posts and have many more drafts started. #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @woodshaver101 Hi Mark, keeping busy. The warm weather makes the phone ring for some reason. #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @FlairWoodworks Not so much tools, but I create new jigs all the time. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: Uh-oh. These dovetails don’t look quite right. http://t.co/TWaAJBtF #woodchat

@woodshaver101: I focus on one at a time just to stay intune with the design #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @woodshaver101 Also thinking about getting involved with selling Japanese tools. #woodchat

@woodshaver101: @DJOfurnituremkr thats a good thing #woodchat

@CoolToolShed: Working on one project always leads to ideas for another! Multiple projects are a way of life! #woodchat

@kweinert: when I was doing flat work (logic puzzles mainly) I did create some special purpose jigs. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @woodshaver101 Sometimes I run out of inspiration so I set the project aside and work on something else. #woodchat

@HighRockWW: @FlairWoodworks with blog post I am the same I always have several in progress, but they are often based on ongoing projects. #woodchat

@DyamiPlotke: Hey guys, have a great #Woodchat. Sorry I’ll miss it. I brought way too much work home.

@ramblinrdesigns: @FlairWoodworks That was a good one. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @DyamiPlotke Multi-task #Woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @woodshaver101 Hows the office job going? #woodchat

@woodshaver101: its hard to make money by jumping from one job to the next.been there done that #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: So, besides participating in #woodchat, what else are you doing right now?

@HighRockWW: @DyamiPlotke it’s ok I rarely make it to #woodchat anymore.

@woodshaver101: @DJOfurnituremkr its sold waiting for the material to get laid up.may have sold a kitchen also #woodchat

@HighRockWW: @FlairWoodworks putting my daughter to bed. #woodchat

@kweinert: @FlairWoodworks waiting for a segmented stopper to finish drying, trying to turn from a log for the first time. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: outside of woodworking, what’s everybody’s other interests? #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @woodshaver101 That’s good news. Next week I enter the Ozaukee County Art Show. Hopefully I’ll win another blue ribbon this year. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @kweinert Beware of flying water if the wood is that wet. I rusted my jointer bed from turning soaking-wet wood. #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @FlairWoodworks Building two boxes (fancy), one wavy shelf, two nightstands, painting a house and working at Woodcraft part-time. #woodchat

@CoolToolShed: cleaning out the pellet stove #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @ramblinrdesigns How’s it working for Woodcraft? #woodchat

@woodshaver101: @FlairWoodworks i just finished a slipper chest for my wife #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @FromTheWoodshop Guitars #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @FlairWoodworks Oops, forgot two bathroom remodels on the schedule too. #woodchat

@kweinert: @FlairWoodworks Just cut today. Picked up some plum and ash from tree trimming by my workplace today. thanks for the warning. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @DJOfurnituremkr building, playing or both? #woodchat

@WatkinsWoodWork: There’s life outside woodworking? #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @FlairWoodworks I love working there. I get new leads all the time from walk-ins, plus a good employee discount and free shop use. #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @FromTheWoodshop Playing, but hope to try my hand at building acoustics some day. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: No. What made you think that? RT @WatkinsWoodWork: There’s life outside woodworking? #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @DJOfurnituremkr There are a couple high-schools in my area that build acoustics in woodshop. #jealous #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @FlairWoodworks Also, being around so many woodworkers, you learn lots of new things all the time. #woodchat

@woodshaver101: @DJOfurnituremkr how about some lessons #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @WatkinsWoodWork unfortunately; the real world isn’t quite as interesting (at least for me).. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: Ha ha ha…RT @FromTheWoodshop: @WatkinsWoodWork unfortunately; the real world isn’t quite as interesting (at least for me).. #woodchat

@WatkinsWoodWork: @ramblinrdesigns @flairwoodworks that brings up a good point. Where so u guys drum up your best leads from? #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @woodshaver101 I supposed to start teaching my Goddaughter soon. She’s about 7. #woodchat

@woodshaver101: @FlairWoodworks #woodchat

@woodshaver101: @WatkinsWoodWork architects and designers #woodchat

@WatkinsWoodWork: @FromTheWoodshop I can relate. All I want to really do is live/ breath woodworking. Real is getting in the way #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @WatkinsWoodWork I’ve been doing renovation work for 16 years. All of my new jobs come from referrals. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @WatkinsWoodWork For me, it’s word of mouth. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @DJOfurnituremkr I have a friend that makes acoustics with http://t.co/8YlMvCrL He made one for Johnny Cash w/ pearl inlays. #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @WatkinsWoodWork If you do good work, the jobs will come to you. It also helps to spread your card around in social settings. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: When you make something, do you document the process of how you made it? #woodchat

@woodshaver101: Ive been playing around with designing using the Fibonacci numbers, #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: I feel a little like a fish out of water; my business is about yacht repair (which entails alot of woodworking) but not solely.. #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @FlairWoodworks I’m taking more photos now than I used to. Posting to facebook and g+, plus for my website. #woodchat

@mamader: @FlairWoodworks I try too. But I find myself making progress on it and realize I went over 20 steps that I should have pics #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @FromTheWoodshop Cool! Building guitars, violins etc is a great skill. #woodchat

@HighRockWW: @FlairWoodworks I always keep my camera close at hand. I take lots of pictures but still feel I should take more. #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @FlairWoodworks And SketchUp is essential. I try to realistically capture all the joinery there. It helps me plan things out. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: Hoping to move more in that direction (woodworking) but too much overhead to make a leap of faith #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: For the bloggers among us, do you feel that blogging about woodworking stuff does anything for business? #woodchat

@WatkinsWoodWork: @FlairWoodworks I usually try to take pics as I progress but just started toying with filming the process as well #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @FlairWoodworks No, just interests other woodworkers. #woodchat

@TheRealNeal: Hey everyone. Sorry I’m late. #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @FlairWoodworks Shannon’s blog led him into the Hand Tool School. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @DJOfurnituremkr It does give you some authority though. Agree? #woodchat

@woodshaver101: nice chatting.got to go. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @FlairWoodworks creatively yes; as far as prospects not as much.I find that it’s mostly fellow woodworkers that follow these blogs #woodchat

@WatkinsWoodWork: @FlairWoodworks not overly. But I have received some interest from non ww through it. Nothing paying yet but someday #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @woodshaver101 See ya, Mark. Thanks for stopping by. #woodchat

@mamader: @WatkinsWoodWork I have tried videoing a couple times, I have found it slows me down too much if I try to talk to the camera. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @FlairWoodworks Depends of if anyone is reading!! :-O #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @TheRealNeal No problem. We are just chatting tonight. Feel free to bring up any topic you’re interested in. #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @FlairWoodworks True. I thinks clients take a look see at times but face to face is still the best interaction. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: That’s just it! RT @FromTheWoodshop: @FlairWoodworks Depends of if anyone is reading!! :-O #woodchat

@JustSqEnough: @FlairWoodworks some day to day pros I know and follow have said no. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: Talking about video… could you guys vote on the poll at the end of this post please? http://t.co/XX3W7VKD #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: @FlairWoodworks @FromTheWoodshop yes, for me, its alot of work for the 20 people who read it. I only write to document for me now #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @MansFineFurn The more you blog, the more readers you’ll get, as a general rule. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @MansFineFurn Nobody frequents a stale blog. #woodchat

@mamader: @MansFineFurn I hear you there, I average about 6 visits a day on my blog. hard to justify the time. #woodchat

@JustSqEnough: @FlairWoodworks done,I like a mixture of video and written #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: I’m trying to use video to bring people to the website, and provide additional info (blog) to keep them coming back. #woodchat

@JustSqEnough: @FlairWoodworks hey! Don’t insult my blog #woodchat

@mamader: @FlairWoodworks Agreed, in fact I need to do a new post on mine, over a month since my last post #woodchat

@HighRockWW: #woodchat good night all. Gotta run.

@FlairWoodworks: @JustSqEnough :) #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: @FlairWoodworks given you’re one of my few readers (I think) you know when I write, it’s not a short bit, it’s hours of work #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @HighRockWW Bye Chris! #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @MansFineFurn And video requires even more time. #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: I haven’t entered the blog world as a writer. Been too busy with everything else. Do like to read others though. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @MansFineFurn Hmm… try posting something and see how many visits you get that day. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: Writing makes me think and so I learn a lot that way. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: Web hits are all about SEO #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: It’s easy to get overwhelmed by the shear volume of blogs out there. I was following rss feeds for awhile, but I can’t keep up. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @FromTheWoodshop If you want traffic, use these keywords: Laguna, Sawstop. #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @FromTheWoodshop What is SEO? #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @ramblinrdesigns I probably spend 15-30 minutes a day keeping up on 80+ RSS feeds. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @FromTheWoodshop keeping them coming back is all about content #woodchat

@JustSqEnough: @ramblinrdesigns yes, my google reader is overflowing #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @ramblinrdesigns Search Engine Optimization. I don’t know much more than that. #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: I’ll start making more posts on my blog once I get more involved with projects for upcoming shows. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: You’ve got it! RT @FromTheWoodshop: @FromTheWoodshop keeping them coming back is all about content #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @FromTheWoodshop Agreed. Especially quality content. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @ramblinrdesigns search engine optimization (i.e. meta data and key words used in each of the posts, page header and description) #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: I do a lot of writing after the noise curfew. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @ramblinrdesigns Quality of information and entertainment value both help. #woodchat

@WatkinsWoodWork: @MansFineFurn @flairwoodworks Writing blog posts? That’s what the day job is for. Wait did I say that out loud? #woodchat

@JustSqEnough: Cigar time folks, later.. #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @FlairWoodworks I live on an acreage, so I don’t have to worry about the racket I make. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @FlairWoodworks you’re fron Canada? I thought the only noise there is from the whispering pines (like where I’m from) #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: No, that’s when I sleep RT @WatkinsWoodWork: Writing blog posts? That’s what the day job is for. Wait did I say that out loud? #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @FromTheWoodshop Yup. I’m 20 minutes outside of Vancouver. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: Is that good or bad? RT @ramblinrdesigns: @FlairWoodworks I live on an acreage, so I don’t have to worry about the racket I make. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @ramblinrdesigns As in, you’re not forced to stop working. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: Question for video watchers; what’s more important: professional content or an entertainment factor (and a little info)? #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @JustSqEnough Later, David! #woodchat

@CoolToolShed: Wouldn’t targeting multiple readers of various ww’ing experience be better? #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: I curious to see how many spambots follow me tomorrow. They seem to be gravitating to woodchat. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @FromTheWoodshop Generally, I’m hoping to learn something, but you have to keep me awake too #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @FlairWoodworks Correct, only sometimes that is a bad thing. I lose track of time when I’m in shop mode. #woodchat

@CoolToolShed: Having multiple posts showing simple projects and some showing more complex in different catagories? #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @ramblinrdesigns I just got hit by (at)clarettajukrb #woodchat Spam ‘em back!

@BillGriggs: Hello everyone. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @BillGriggs Hi Bill! #woodchat

@TheRealNeal: @FromTheWoodshop definitley content, entertainment’s a bonus. #woodchat

@GarageWoodworks: @FromTheWoodshop Content #woodchat

@WatkinsWoodWork: @FromTheWoodshop depends in the content. But overall I would say entertainment. U have to keep them watching. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @FlairWoodworks That can be tricky; how much detail is too much? Gear it towards beginners or advanced? #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @FromTheWoodshop Do it all! Talk about fox-wedged tenons, but explain it from square one. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @BillGriggs Hey Bill ! #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @FromTheWoodshop Or you could do a two-part thing – Video 1: Basics, Video 2: Advanced #woodchat

@WatkinsWoodWork: @FromTheWoodshop @flairwoodworks Exactly. That’s why I cut my GROZ plane review/tune up into 4 pieces. #woodchat

@BillGriggs: @FlairWoodworks evening Chris #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @FromTheWoodshop Detail is great, but video lengths have their limits. Better to have several shorter segments than 1 long one. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: I’ve seen enough videos on lapping a sole. RT @WatkinsWoodWork: That’s why I cut my GROZ plane review/tune up into 4 pieces. #woodchat

@BillGriggs: @ramblinrdesigns Beth good evening. Writing frequently is better than long posts with a long period between posts. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @FlairWoodworks That’s an idea; LOTS of editing though #woodchat

@BillGriggs: @FromTheWoodshop Hey Andy. What you working on. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @FromTheWoodshop It could be as simple as stopping the camera between segments, but it could be very involved. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: For video, what’s your length limit (how long is too long?) 10 min, 20 min, 30 min, etc… #woodchat

@kweinert: I’ll bet the first one of you that produce videos that link together like the ‘write your own adventure’ books will have a winner. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @FromTheWoodshop Generally, 15 minutes. #woodchat

@BillGriggs: @FromTheWoodshop 10 minutes seems to be about the limit of most peoples attention span. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @kweinert I’ve seen a music video like that. #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @BillGriggs Spring has sprung so for me the next 6 months are going to be all about keeping very expensive boats looking great #woodchat

@GarageWoodworks: @FromTheWoodshop Ten minutes. I break mine up if too long. #woodchat

@WatkinsWoodWork: @FlairWoodworks precisely. The newbies that haven’t can watch the howto and those that just want the meat can watch the final. #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @FromTheWoodshop I’d say 20-30 minutes max. If it takes more time, do more parts. #woodchat

@kring_l: hi all just catching up #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: David Savage is experimenting with short segments no longer than 1-2 minutes and unedited. #woodchat

@WatkinsWoodWork: @FromTheWoodshop I say 10ish. But then again I also posted 1hr up to blip that is getting views #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @GarageWoodworks I’ve found that successive videos lose viewer interest.. Do you see that as well? #woodchat

@atully1: @FlairWoodworks #woodchat I’m not sure if you can tell by this pic how dark the lighter wood turned. http://t.co/DjJBMf2q

@BillGriggs: @kring_l HI Jim. #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @FlairWoodworks That’s too short. Can really cover anything in detail. That becomes more of a commercial. #woodchat

@BillGriggs: @FromTheWoodshop NO. They work for the WoodWhisperer. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: David Savage’s site is http://t.co/5VcMSBQc and you can sign up for his e-newsletter at the bottom #woodchat

@GarageWoodworks: @FromTheWoodshop Not really. I do find that I lose people if more than 10 minutes. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @ramblinrdesigns I agree. Too much work to get to the video for the end result. I mentioned to him about making it into a playlist #woodchat

@kring_l: @FlairWoodworks alot of titles are too long and part 1 or part 2 get cut out of description, annoying #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @BillGriggs But, he’s the WW !! #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @atully1 Are you talking about the wood in the background? #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: Time to go visit with Michele & Porter for a bit, see you next week. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @FromTheWoodshop @BillGriggs If he shouted, he wouldn’t have to repeat himself so much. #badjokes #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @DJOfurnituremkr See you, Dale. #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: Anyone ever use wood bleach? I have some maple with a small stain (worm trail?) that I need to get rid of. #woodchat

@BillGriggs: @FromTheWoodshop Yes he is! But he didn’t start that way. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @ramblinrdesigns SAVE THE CHARACTER #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @DJOfurnituremkr G’Night~ #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: An interactive music video for you to enjoy later: http://t.co/GLipXY70 #woodchat

@WatkinsWoodWork: â€œ@FromTheWoodshop: @BillGriggs But, he’s the WW !! #woodchatâ€ And common. Who doesn’t want to be like Marc? #woodchat

@BillGriggs: @ramblinrdesigns Do you use wood bleach to die your roots? #woodchat

@atully1: @FlairWoodworks #woodchat http://t.co/Sg2Qrnjp

@FromTheWoodshop: Other than WW video’s what else do you search for online (video content) #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @FlairWoodworks Ordinarily I would but this is for a commercial space to cover a beam and it won’t look right. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @ramblinrdesigns No, I’ve never used bleach. #blasphemy #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @FromTheWoodshop Music. #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: @BillGriggs Nope. Still a natural blond (but probably not for much longer!) #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @FromTheWoodshop Maybe I should qualify this Q; keep it clean!! #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @FromTheWoodshop Yeah, I was thinking that too! #woodchat

@BillGriggs: hahaha #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: Ok. Gotta go find something to eat before the #Canucks game. #woodchat

@ramblinrdesigns: Looks like we managed to kill a perfectly good hour. I better get back to work now. See you next week. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: Damn! RT @ramblinrdesigns: Looks like we managed to kill a perfectly good hour. I better get back to work now. See you next week. #woodchat

@kring_l: anyone have an opinion stanley 62 low angle jack plane for shooting board? #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @kring_l Good choice. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: @kring_l Make sure the plane is tuned and blade is SHARP! #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: Yea, gonna step outside and listen to snow melt and enjoy the clean smell of the woods!!) #woodchat

@BillGriggs: Good night folks. Go make something. #woodchat

@kring_l: @FlairWoodworks thanks i will #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @BillGriggs Later Bill! #woodchat

@kring_l: night @billgriggs #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @kring_l G’Night!~ #woodchat

@FromTheWoodshop: @FlairWoodworks Seems like they play everynight!! At least according to your tweets ~ #woodchat

@DyamiPlotke: @FlairWoodworks wish I could have. Estimating & editing proposals takes focus. #woodchat

@Tumblewood: At a point I will start writing for the buyer. RT @DJOfurnituremkr: @FlairWoodworks No, just interests other woodworkers. #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: I like how @tumblewood is catching up on #woodchat by himself!

@DozersWorkshop: @FlairWoodworks @tumblewood shoot, I just now got caught up #woodchat

@Tumblewood: And now all caught up. Good discussion. RT @FlairWoodworks: I like how @tumblewood is catching up on #woodchat by himself!

@WatkinsWoodWork: Hmmm only 7 spam bots from tonight’s #woodchat that’s like a new record.

@MansFineFurn: chatting about wood with #woodchat, indeed #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @EliCleveland welcome Eli! Thanks for coming tonight as our special guest. Did you bring the waffles? #woodchat

@WoodworkGuy: I agree! RT @uppercutwood: “Beer is proof that God loves us, and wants us to be happy” – Ben Franklin #woodchat

@TomsWorkbench: Dang, and I’m in to a glass of red wine… #woodchat

@UserOfWood: @uppercutwood yes it was Ben that said, beer me! #woodchat

@WoodworkGuy: it’s all good, Tom. #woodchat

@uppercutwood: So, Eli, I’m sure we’ll have some questions from the woodworkers, but how would you like to start? #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @uppercutwood …I forgot them… #woodchat

@TomsWorkbench: @WoodworkGuy You got that right… #woodchat

@DyamiPlotke: @TomsWorkbench I will be in the shop, but doing home improvement not woodworking. #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @EliCleveland how about start off telling us about you (for those that don’t know you) and then dive into a #WoodExpo2012 intro #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: Hello all !!! How is everyone tonight? #woodchat”

@DyamiPlotke: Hello #woodchat

@WoodworkGuy: @Wood_Jedi Hello. Great here, it’s #woodchat time

@theboisshop: Welcome @EliCleveland. Glad you could make it tonight. #woodchat

@uppercutwood: RT @EliCleveland: @uppercutwood Alright, let’s see how well I can summarize. I’m a furniture maker in Boston, MA. #woodchat

@uppercutwood: RT @EliCleveland: Since it started, I’ve been working on Rough Cut with Tommy Mac as a Tech. Advisor among other things. #woodchat

@WoodworkGuy: Welcome to #woodchat @EliCleveland

@Torch02: Good evening, #woodchat. Don’t know how long I’ll be up, but I’m here until bedtime

@uppercutwood: @theboisshop Rob are you still in USVI? crazy man. #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: Hello @EliClevland #woodchat

@ThomOlsen: I have an old particle board desk that broke out one of the quick fasteners, any way to fix that break? #woodchat

@DavidJUlschmid: Woot! So happy to be on twitter during #woodchat today.

@SMeekWoodworks: Good evening ya’ll #woodchat

@theboisshop: @uppercutwood I am indeed woodchatting on the beach right now. Wife thinks I’m nuts, but wouldn’t miss it. #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: Hey @Torch02 and SMeekwoodworks #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @ThomOlsen Yes, burn the desk and build a new one #occupywoodshop #woodchat

@EliCleveland: Hello, Jedi. 4 years ago Tommy got a chance to show his work at the New England Home Show. Since then, we’ve built the WoodExpo. #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: @theboisshop I’ve gotta agree with your wife #woodchat

@InGrainWoodwork: What does the wood expo have that the other shows don’t? #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @MichaelAgate, did you make it yet? #woodchat

@TomsWorkbench: @theboisshop Bastard… #woodchat

@benjamenjohnson: @ThomOlsen: …any way to fix that break? | Epoxy maybe? #woodchat

@ThomOlsen: Hahahahahaaaa! I bought the desk back in the 60′s and it has a lot of memories “carved” into it. Wood prefer to keep it. #woodchat

@SMeekWoodworks: @theboisshop Dedication. Nice. #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @EliCleveland how is it working with ol Tommy? He is a trip! #woodchat

@WoodworkGuy: the woodworking shows are coming out of the, ahem, woodwork… #woodchat

@Tumblewood: Sorry I’m late. Getting pieces ready to glue up #woodchat

@asliceofwood: Hey everyone #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @InGrainWoodwork In short, consumers. It’s held within the Home Show. It gives makers a chance to interact with buyers. #woodchat

@TomsWorkbench: @WoodworkGuy snort #woodchat

@Tumblewood: Rob, are you back from the Virgin Islands already!?! #woodchat

@TheRealNeal: Almost missed it! Evening all. #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: HEY TIMMMM @asliceofwood!! #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @Tumblewood Vic, glad you’re here. @EliCleveland was introducing himself before we dive into #woodexpo2012 #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @Wood_Jedi Working with Tommy is a daily adventure. #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: Hello Vic @Tumblewood good to see you. #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @EliCleveland How large of a geographical area does the home show advertise to and attract from? #woodchat

@BillGriggs: Good evening everyone. #woodchat

@BoatworksToday: Hey, I think I finally got the hang on this #woodchat

@DyamiPlotke: @SMeekWoodworks evening, Scott. #woodchat

@Tumblewood: @theboisshop You ARE nuts…over a WIA midget hooker! #woodchat

@SMeekWoodworks: Hey @EliCleveland, glad you could join us. I definitely need to make it to a Wood Expo at some point. #woodchat

@WoodworkGuy: @BillGriggs Good evening Bill. #woodchat

@TomsWorkbench: @Tumblewood No, Vic, he’s still kickin’ it Caribbean style #woodchat

@InGrainWoodwork: Thanks for the follow Matt! #woodchat

@Tumblewood: @Wood_Jedi Hey Laney #woodchat

@Tumblewood: @TomsWorkbench I just saw that #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @BoatworksToday Welcome Andy, I just watched your first intro video on @MBWpodcast’s site #woodchat

@TomsWorkbench: @Tumblewood You… still… with the midget hookers. #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: Hi guys, I can hang out for a little while. #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @BillGriggs how are you tonight? #woodchat

@asliceofwood: @Wood_Jedi You on dinner break from the shop? #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @DJOfurnituremkr Dale, glad you could make it. #woodchat

@BillGriggs: @WoodworkGuy Good evening Jeff. I worked in the shop today….. Cleaning. #woodchat

@Tumblewood: @uppercutwood Yes, on this link https://t.co/v7HuFsyE #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: Hi DJOfurnituremkr glad you could make it #woodchat

@Tumblewood: @DJOfurnituremkr Hey Dale! #woodchat

@BillGriggs: @Wood_Jedi Great Laney. How about you? #woodchat

@InGrainWoodwork: Looks like a full crown in here! #woodchat

@theboisshop: For those interested in what the #woodexpo2012 is all about, this is my take from last year. http://t.co/lddGSffA #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @uppercutwood I can’t find the numbers, but it attracts people throughout New Eng. and I think ads are a 60 mile rad. #woodchat

@Tumblewood: I need to drag over one of the ends and work on it while we’re chatting #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @asliceofwood.. you know i live in the shop..lol..im on the shop computer…it was perfect timing…waiting for glue to dry #woodchat

@asliceofwood: @InGrainWoodwork makes the conversation better #woodchat

@BoatworksToday: @uppercut Still have a few things to learn about this video thing.. Good to hear someone watched it :-O G’even Fellas! #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: I am doing very well Bill :O) thank you for asking #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @EliCleveland Do you know how woodworkers can find regional shows like #woodexpo2012 in their area? #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: I’ve been on a good run lately making new items. Small stuff to bring to shows and sell on Etsy. #woodchat

@TomsWorkbench: @EliCleveland – do you find working in front of a crowd at #woodexpo different from being on the set of Rough Cut? #woodchat

@asliceofwood: @Wood_Jedi i’m surprised you haven’t replaced a kitchen table with the tablesaw/router table. #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: Hello @BoatworksToday!! #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: I can only say anecdotally, NE Home show is BIG draw, I assume bigger, now that #WoodExpo2012 has been added #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @theboisshop Yes! Rob did an excellent job representing the craft and himself, which are two foci of the show. #woodchat

@DavidJUlschmid: For all you #woodchat -ers. I discovered this awesome place with LOTS of woodworking books. And they let you take them for free! The Library

@BillGriggs: @DJOfurnituremkr Do you have pictures of some of your projects or a link to Etsy. #woodchat

@SMeekWoodworks: @DJOfurnituremkr Off tonight’s topic, but how are your Etsy sales going? #woodchat

@UserOfWood: @EliCleveland how may makers will be showning #woodexpo2012 #woodchat

@RenaissanceWW: hey #woodchat, how you doin’

@BoatworksToday: Took me a little bit to figure out how this works. Feel a little like a Re-Re it took so many tries.. #woodchat

@InGrainWoodwork: @DavidJUlschmid I always am walking out with at least one bag full! #woodchat

@Tumblewood: @EliCleveland I wish the show wasn’t so far away. I’m still hoping to have something in it next year. #woodchat

@WoodworkGuy: @RenaissanceWW Welcome Shannon #woodchat

@asliceofwood: @EliCleveland how long have you been woodworking? #woodchat

@BoatworksToday: Hey @Wood_Jedi! #woodchat

@benjamenjohnson: @DavidJUlschmid The Library? What’s that? #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @uppercutwood Guilds and clubs often have contact with organizers. We’ve reached out to a number in NE. I hear MWA is good 8) #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @asliceofwood… I would never eat on my tablesaw..LOL #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @RenaissanceWW Shannon good to see you #woodchat

@hmwoodworks: @DJOfurnituremkr how do you find etsy for selling smaller items? Have been debating whether to give it a try. #woodchat

@DavidJUlschmid: @DJOfurnituremkr Hey! Me Too! I wondered if any other #woodchat peeps were on Etsy. What is your shop name? I’m http://t.co/8wawmfNg

@Wood_Jedi: So @MichaelAgate… the room moves pretty fast doesnt it..lol #woodchat

@uppercutwood: Does anyone know of a directory of regional shows like #woodexpo2012? #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @BillGriggs Sure: http://t.co/1cIUpASW #woodchat

@Torch02: @RenaissanceWW reminder – decouple twitter & facebook for #woodchat

@DyamiPlotke: Does the mix of home show & wood show result in some uninterested folk who were only there for the home show? #woodchat

@RenaissanceWW: @uppercutwood @Torch02 I’ll probably just be lurking tonight, knee deep in site work and video editing #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @MansFineFurn Home show gets about 20,000 visitors each year. 25% purchase home furnishings within a month of the show. #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @SMeekWoodworks Not bad, eight sales in three weeks. I’m slowly building a more diverse inventory. Candle holders today. #woodchat

@InGrainWoodwork: @DavidJUlschmid My shop is Going with the grain, nothing for sale right now #woodchat

@Tumblewood: @uppercutwood Nothing of that caliber. WoodExpo is more a design consortium, from what I can tell from Neil’s description #woodchat

@theboisshop: @RenaissanceWW Just let us know when it’s safe to talk about you #woodchat

@TomsWorkbench: @EliCleveland 20,000… dang… #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: @DyamiPlotke my impression is that the inverse is true. people there for the homeshow wander into the woodexpo and are interested #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @EliCleveland that’s a fantastic stat. That’s 5,000 sales in one month in a 60 mile radius. #woodchat

@DyamiPlotke: @EliCleveland @uppercutwood there is a great MWA chapter in Seattle. #woodchat

@Tumblewood: @RenaissanceWW I’m knee deep in a bench #woodchat

@BoatworksToday: @RenaissanceWW Saw you’re doing a server upgrade.. Hows it going? #woodchat

@asliceofwood: @DavidJUlschmid just added you to cirlce on etsy #woodchat

@BillGriggs: @DavidJUlschmid I really like the live edge on that box. #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @DavidJUlschmid I’m: http://t.co/1cIUpASW #woodchat

@uppercutwood: BTW I started a G+ hangout #woodchat

@EliCleveland: At trade shows, people seem reluctant to interact, for fear of a sales pitch. Home Show folks seem pleasantly surprised. #woodchat

@SMeekWoodworks: @RenaissanceWW I’m going to have to do some website work soon myself. #woodchat

@DyamiPlotke: RT @uppercutwood Does anyone know of a directory of regional shows like #woodexpo2012? #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: @uppercutwood I think the draw is much larger than 60 miles, beyond the ads. this show’s been around for many moons #woodchat

@asliceofwood: @EliCleveland any difference in price of products from trade shows to home shows? #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: There is a woodshop near me in town that closed down a lot of great tools and machines for sale I need to go and take a look! #woodchat

@SMeekWoodworks: @EliCleveland That’s a great stat. I wonder how that compares to other home shows? I’m guessing higher than average. #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @Tumblewood We try to open people’s minds, consumer and maker alike. So we show a variety and encourage discussions. #woodchat

@WatkinsWoodWork: So if you only have enough cash for one show this year which one is it? #Woodchat

@jth: @Tumblewood I’m waiting for a show to make it to Minneapolis… #woodchat

@Tumblewood: @uppercutwood I don’t see it, Matt #woodchat

@DavidJUlschmid: So how many of us are on Etsy and how many of you are on CustomMade? #woodchat

@BoatworksToday: @uppercutwood just searched for it.. didn’t pull up? I’ll try again #woodchat

@EliCleveland: We do critiques where students and newbies got to hear what Glen Guarino, Allan Breed, and Phil Lowe thought of their work. #woodchat

@Tumblewood: @jth I’m way over here on the west coast #woodchat

@BillGriggs: @DJOfurnituremkr Bocote looks nice. What is the finish you used. #woodchat

@TomsWorkbench: @WatkinsWoodWork I’m probably headed to WIA12 in Cinci… #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: Im actually going to WW in America this year… thats the show Id like to make it to #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @SMeekWoodworks I believe NE Home Show is the biggest. #woodchat

@benjamenjohnson: RT @jth: @Tumblewood Im waiting for a show to make it to Minneapolis… You and me both! #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: I haven’t been to a show in 10 years. I think mainly because my interest is more Japanese tools & joinery. #woodchat

@WoodworkGuy: @WatkinsWoodWork I have hotel booked for WIA Cinci #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: @EliCleveland That’s what I’m most looking forward to (next yr). Neil asked if I wanted to show, but nothing built I can show! #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @BillGriggs I tend to use T&T varnish oil most often. #woodchat

@Furnitology: Hi all been reading for a while #woodchat

@TomsWorkbench: @WoodworkGuy Now, that’s fast! #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @DJOfurnituremkr what about shows that are like #woodexpo2012 instead of like #WIA12 #woodchat

@WoodworkGuy: @TomsWorkbench go early for best rates #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @MansFineFurn you have got to go see the show and blog about it #woodexpo2012 #woodchat

@asliceofwood: Whats the take on “The Woodworking Shows”. Worth going? Go for 2 days or all 3? #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @Furnitology Hey, Neil! For those who don’t know, Neil’s been a huge part of organizing the WoodExpo every year. #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @Furnitology welcome Neil how are you man! Where is @celamens? #woodchat

@DyamiPlotke: @EliCleveland I don’t mean to compare trade shows to WoodExpo. I was wondering about it compared to woodworking conferences. #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: @Furnitology speak of the devil! #woodchat

@SMeekWoodworks: Here is my Etsy store: http://t.co/mSWxxxQL I guess I need to add items for sale again. #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @uppercutwood I’ll have to check into that one. #woodchat

@McPhersonDoug: I’d love to go to one, mostly to meet people (ya’ll), but I also need tools, ah and a garage. Want shop out of basement. #woodchat

@theboisshop: @Furnitology Hey Neil, welcome! #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: @uppercutwood I’ll be there!! http://t.co/edkImz2z I’m sure @theboisshop will also write on it… #woodchat

@Furnitology: @WatkinsWoodWork depends on what you are looking for. Education go to WIA to show your work Woodexpo #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @WoodworkGuy You booked your hotel already.?? man that is smart!! I didnt think you could book early..lol #woodchat

@swedishiron: Hey @EliCleveland @Furnitology I’m reading along as well. #woodchat #woodchat

@WoodworkGuy: @Wood_Jedi I’ve learned that you get best selection and choice booking early #woodchat

@Furnitology: @uppercutwood doing fine Matt Thanks…hey Rob with Pain Killer in hand #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @DyamiPlotke I haven’t attended the other conferences, but we love having the interaction with consumers, which I think is unique. #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: RT @Furnitology: … depends on what you are looking for. Education go to WIA to show your work Woodexpo
@uppercutwood: @Furnitology Eli has been telling us about #woodexpo2012, anything you want to add? jump in! #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @WoodworkGuy I have never been to a show, thought i needed to get more involved and get my name out. So I will be attending! #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @EliCleveland would love to find a show like #woodexpo2012 in the seattle area. @DarrellPeart goes to Pasadena for Craftsman Wknd #woodchat

@EliCleveland: Hey! @swedishiron is another member of the team for WoodExpo. #woodchat

@sharpendwood: Great discussion #woodchat! Kid and dinner melting down so only lurking tonight.

@Wood_Jedi: @MichaelAgate, when are you starting on the spice cabinet? #woodchat

@TomsWorkbench: @Wood_Jedi It’s good to spread the word that you are out there… #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @SMeekWoodworks I made a few of these today, still need finish: http://t.co/JOA1IC88 One is a 7 candle. #woodchat

@celamens: @uppercutwood @furnitology wish I could be make #woodchat tonight. Taking care of football equipment for youth football w/ an ex-Lute!

@WoodworkGuy: @Wood_Jedi Glad to hear! I’m looking forward too. Was going last yr but had to cancel #woodchat

@asliceofwood: @Wood_Jedi are you going to the woodworking show in tampa? #woodchat

@InGrainWoodwork: @asliceofwood I Didn’t go this year. Too Commercialized, more home show than woodworking #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: Thanks @Furnitology, @swedishiron, and @EliCleveland for putting on @WoodExpoUS. We’re all very excited! #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @EliCleveland @swedishiron tell us more about #woodexpo2012, or if you know how to find similar regional shows #woodchat

@BoatworksToday: I live in the middle of nowhere, is making a big trip to WIA worth it? Definitely do it if it were close, but its not #woodchat

@TomsWorkbench: @asliceofwood I’ll be there at the fiargrounds… #woodchat

@uppercutwood: I’m beginning to think that MWA Seattle needs to put on our own show #woodchat

@allenworb: @EliCleveland I have been to 3 WIA events and only attended one seminar. #woodchat

@WatkinsWoodWork: @BoatworksToday I have the same problem #Woodchat

@hmwoodworks: @DJOfurnituremkr is that purpleheart? #woodchat

@Furnitology: We’re trying to re-connect to the buyer and provide the current ambitious woodworker what it is to logistically to attend a show #woodchat

@BillGriggs: Tonight the mechanical tech class from the local college came to see my CNC Router table work. #woodchat

@swedishiron: @MansFineFurn thank you, looking forward to having a chance to meet you and other internet woodworkers face to face #woodchat

@asliceofwood: @TomsWorkbench we have one coming to charlotte. thought I would go if it was worth it #woodchat

@TomsWorkbench: @allenworb Matt – I dunno… I still think the national/international meet up of a larger show is definitely worth it #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @allenworb What do you like about it? #woodchat

@allenworb: @BoatworksToday cinci is a long trip. #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: @furnitology, as if you didn’t have enough to do, it looks like there’s demand for woodexpo to travel around the country #woodchat

@asliceofwood: @InGrainWoodwork does it have any benefits? #woodchat

@TomsWorkbench: @asliceofwood It is what it is.. there are some interesting things there. #woodchat

@benjamenjohnson: @BillGriggs How big is your CNC table? #woodchat

@BoatworksToday: @allenworb about 10 hours #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @MichaelAgate you are getting a new bandsaw…RRRRRRRR Nice! #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @Furnitology is their an online directory of similar shows? #woodchat

@DavidJUlschmid: @BoatworksToday Great website! #woodchat

@Furnitology: A plus is that a new woodworkers get an opportunity to rub shoulders with fellow woodworkers who have lots of show experience #woodchat

@asliceofwood: @Wood_Jedi @MichaelAgate do I hear jealousy in your writing? #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: Nice @ MichaelAgate.. #woodchat

@InGrainWoodwork: Last year they had some good speakers but only Tommy Mac was there this year. The pricing on told is the same out of catalogs #woodchat

@BoatworksToday: @DavidJUlschmid Thanks! Still learning! Going to be starting a new site more along the lines for this chat in a couple of weeks #woodchat

@BillGriggs: @benjamenjohnson Ben, the CNC is 4′x5′ cutting area. I built it and plan to make it 5′x8′ next. #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @hmwoodworks Black walnut & Wenge http://t.co/Aftd6BFE. I’ll be doing them in aluminum and doug fir soon. #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @Woodworkguy Thats not bad at all!! #woodchat

@Furnitology: @uppercutwood not sure…..I know Tommy attends a national show but I’m really not familiar with them #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: @DJOfurnituremkr aren’t you involved in the finefurnishings shows, multiple locations? is that a similar opportunity at all? #woodchat

@SplinteredBoard: I don’t know of any shows similar to woodexpo #woodchat #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @asliceofwood @Michaelagate No Tim, ..lol…I do need a new bandsaw though…ha ha :O) #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @EliCleveland what tips would you give a woodworker preparing for an upcoming show? #woodchat

@swedishiron: #woodexpo is unique from our research, meet world class woodworkers, watch a lot of technique demos, see real furniture #woodchat

@DavidJUlschmid: This is so cool! #woodchat http://t.co/bsA6u2Gs

@DJOfurnituremkr: @hmwoodworks Ooops that is Bocote on that one. #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @Furnitology @uppercutwood Tommy tours with The Woodworking Shows, which are more like trade/industry shows. #woodchat

@asliceofwood: @Wood_Jedi never owned one, would be a nice addition to the shop #woodchat

@Furnitology: @uppercutwood Matt I want to believe woodexpo is the 1st to try and get the internet woodworking community to show #woodchat

@benjamenjohnson: @BillGriggs Nice! Over a full sheet of plywood. #woodchat

@DavidJUlschmid: @DJOfurnituremkr @hmwoodworks What do you cut the aluminum with? #woodchat #aluminumchat

@EliCleveland: @SplinteredBoard is another organizer. We’ve almost got the whole crew! #woodchat

@jth: @benjamenjohnson a fellow Minneapolitan! Excellent. #woodchat

@SplinteredBoard: @MansFineFurn I wish we had the resources and opportunities to have the woodexpo travel, but the $ just isn’t there #woodchat #woodchat

@BillGriggs: @benjamenjohnson Here is a video before I made the latest upgrades.http://youtu.be/cLmu6u036kw #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @MansFineFurn I’m only involved with the Milwaukee show but I may do the Providence show this year. #woodchat

@hmwoodworks: @DJOfurnituremkr besides the candle holder what other items do you put on etsy? #woodchat

@BoatworksToday: @DJOfurnituremkr just saw your from my neck of the woods! #woodchat

@theboisshop: @SplinteredBoard Hey Rick, welcome! #woodchat

@BillGriggs: @benjamenjohnson I want to be able to do Baltic Birch too. #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @SplinteredBoard ..yet. #woodchat

@Morton: One of the most fun things about #woodexpo2012 is what @Furnitology said – meeting other makers and discussing what works, etc. #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: Very cool @MichaelAgate I have a small one I need a bigger to do more resawing currently using the table saw to resaw boards #woodchat

@swedishiron: Hey @SplinteredBoard ! #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @woodworkguy, you mean to cancel when you arrive and pay cash so your card isnt charged? #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @SplinteredBoard good to see you Rick, any advice for woodworkers preparing for an upcoming show #woodchat

@Furnitology: @uppercutwood Here’s a tip….because of the cost (free)..use it to test a design and watch/evaluate the feedback. #woodchat

@benjamenjohnson: @jth Well I tend to identify more with St. Paul :>) but close enough. #woodchat

@SplinteredBoard: @swedishiron Scotttieeee #woodchat

@allenworb: anyone from the cincinnati/midwest area? #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @MichaelAgate are you on #tweetchat? for some reason Im not seeing your posts unless i look at my new #hootsuite ..lol #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @hmwoodworks I’ll be listing small boxes & cabinets in a month or so. Nothing large or over $300.00 #woodchat

@uppercutwood: Remember that the transcripts get posted to http://t.co/XbQs2mvQ #woodchat

@jth: @benjamenjohnson I won’t hold that against you. #woodchat

@swedishiron: @Morton nailed it, amazing opportunity to meet a group of woodworkers w/ a range of experience and skill. #woodexpo2012 #woodchat

@Furnitology: Here’s another tip, we ask for one or 2 pieces but look at web site portfolio’s to see what else the craftsperson has #woodchat

@EliCleveland: RT @Furnitology: @uppercutwood Heres a tip….because of the cost (free)..use it to test a design and watch/evaluate the feedback. #woodchat

@SMeekWoodworks: Hey @SplinteredBoard. Good to see ya around again. #woodchat

@SplinteredBoard: I’ll tell ya, the best thing, for me, about woodexpo, is rubbing elbows with the masters. #woodchat #woodchat

@Tumblewood: @Furnitology I’m working on a portfolio. I hope to have another 3 pcs this year #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @EliCleveland how many pieces to bring? large or small? bring a bench and work? take orders, or sell ready made or both? #woodchat

@SMeekWoodworks: @Furnitology Didn’t know it was free. Definitely going to make there at some point. #woodchat

@WoodworkGuy: @TomsWorkbench Take care Tom #woodchat

@TheRealNeal: @TomsWorkbench See ya Tom. #woodchat

@Furnitology: Here’s a ti for Rob and Morton…loyalty means something and next year if it were me , I’d have 4 or 5 pieces ready. #woodchat

@SplinteredBoard: @SMeekWoodworks Hay man! Resurfacing for a special event (#woodchat) #woodchat

@BoatworksToday: @TomsWorkbench G’Night! #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @woodworkguy ahh ok, id just leave it on the card..I wasnt sure what you meant.. its good to know if something comes up #woodchat

@theboisshop: @Furnitology Wow, I better get off the beach and back into the shop! #woodchat

@benjamenjohnson: @BillGriggs That is a thing of beauty. #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: Gnight @BoatworksToday have a great evening! #woodchat

@jth: Any favorite sources for mortise chisels? As far as i can tell, I can break the bank with LN or take chances on eBay. #woodchat

@swedishiron: Here is a link to Tommy’s forum with a list of last years demonstrations/presentations http://t.co/5f6Pgawc | not only design chat #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @uppercutwood As many as possible; we want new stuff and variety improves your chances. Demos reel in crowds. Take what you can. #woodchat

@benjamenjohnson: @allenworb I live in the burbs of Minneapolis. #woodchat

@Furnitology: @SMeekWoodworks That’s the opportunity that, craftspeople miss-yes you have travel and lodging, but no booth fee..super for locals #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: Small cash & carry pieces sold very well at the 2011Milw Fine Furnishings Show. I didn’t have any, that’s why I’m building now. #woodchat

@SplinteredBoard: Also, we’re kind of pushing the idea of furniture accessories at woodexpo. 2 items that sold last year were accessories #woodchat #woodchat

@uppercutwood: MT @swedishiron: Here is a link to Tommys forum with a list of last years demonstrations/presentations http://t.co/GGBii2o2 #woodchat

@BoatworksToday: Still have a few minutes before daughter comes down from bath… Then gotta go #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: Hey guys if you are on #LumberJocks be sure to add me as a buddy http://t.co/aAxem4EG #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @DJOfurnituremkr examples of small cash and carry? #woodchat

@EliCleveland: I love seeing a new guy drawing a crowd with a demo. To the public, Allan Breed and Phil Lowe are no more exciting than a newb. #woodchat

@BoatworksToday: @benjamenjohnson Where abouts? #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: @SplinteredBoard accessories? like what kind? (those, I may have around to bring) #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: I’ll still bring furniture of course but I also want to offer more. Also taking a break from live edge & tables. #woodchat

@Furnitology: @theboisshop well, I’d enjoy the beach first, have another jerk chicken sandwich…..but yeah….opportunity is there. #woodchat

@BillGriggs: RT @benjamenjohnson: @BillGriggs That is a thing of beauty. #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @EliCleveland what kind of pieces are consumers looking for? #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @MansFineFurn Last year, a chandelier and scrabble board sold. #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @uppercutwood Wall hung cabinets, lamps, jewelry boxes, stools, jewelry, small tables & benches. #woodchat

@SplinteredBoard: @MansFineFurn A lamp and a Scrabble board (board was the last winner of the Sawdust Chronicles Challenge) #woodchat

@swedishiron: @EliCleveland how many work benches will we have on the floor this #woodexpo2012 estimate? #woodchat

@Morton: @jth @RenaissanceWW and I recently checked out the Narex Mortise chisels. They fared really well. http://t.co/ItWT8m25 #woodchat

@Furnitology: RT @SplinteredBoard: we’re kind of pushing the idea of furniture accessories at woodexpo. 2 items sold last year were accessories #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @DJOfurnituremkr are you taking cash and check, or credit card too, and how? #woodchat

@jth: @Wood_Jedi nice easel! #woodchat

@woodshaver101: @DJOfurnituremkr dont forget ear rings #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: The cabinet prototype is almost finished going to start shooting the next video tomorrow!!! #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: RT @swedishiron: @EliCleveland how many work benches will we have on the floor this #woodexpo2012 estimate?
@SplinteredBoard: @MansFineFurn @EliCleveland yeah, I meant chandelier… #woodchat

@EliCleveland: Period isn’t as popular as contemporary. #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @swedishiron does the home show take a cut of the sales take, or is it truly donated space with no fees? #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @jth THANK YOU!! :O) #woodchat

@jth: @allenworb: @jth LN for sure. beautiful balance, finish and edges I love the LN chisels but holy spendy! #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @swedishiron I think we’re up to 6 benches for demos. #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @EliCleveland I am tired of being asked for pieces painted white #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @uppercutwood Last years all sales were check. It’s mainly local people & Chicago. Maybe this year I’ll get set up for CC’s #woodchat

@SplinteredBoard: @uppercutwood No one takes a cut #woodchat

@Furnitology: Another #woodexpo tip- don’t think to follow the rules precisely in Call for Entries …. twist the judges a bit..it works for us #woodchat

@benjamenjohnson: @BoatworksToday Mounds View, From your website I see you’re on the south shore. I miss living near Duluth. #woodchat

@swedishiron: @uppercutwood all donated space w/ no fees! @Morton can attest to that #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @woodshaver101 Hi Mark. #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @asliceofwood you got quiet..lol are you still here? #woodchat

@EliCleveland: I think furniture sells best by value. Consumers don’t understand the big price tags on some pieces. Humble pie when people scoff. #woodchat

@Morton: @SplinteredBoard It’s OK – lamp is appropriate Ha! Wait til you see my table this year. Same design #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: RT @uppercutwood: @EliCleveland I am tired of being asked for pieces painted white
@benjamenjohnson: @Morton You have to stop making these videos my wish list is already to long. #woodchat

@woodshaver101: @DJOfurnituremkr hows it going. i may have some work,for us #woodchat

@BoatworksToday: @MansFineFurn or black!! #woodchat

@asliceofwood: @Wood_Jedi yep, still here, taking in all the advise while being distracted by the hockey game haha #woodchat

@jth: @Morton @renaissanceww thanks, I’ll check that. I want good antique or LN, but can’t afford (time, money) #woodchat

@theboisshop: @swedishiron Well, I think @Morton did buy a few beers last year – technically that’s a cut… #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @MansFineFurn “I saw this piece in Pottery Barn catalog can you make it cheaper? and use a different color paint?” #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @uppercutwood Haha. I have a photo of a very popular piece from 2 years ago. I’ll find it. #woodchat

@SplinteredBoard: @Morton Awesome can’t wait. Can’t wait for @theboisshop ‘s step stool either! #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @Jth I almost forgot about them too..spent the last few days catching up some blogs and projects..still more to do.. #woodchat

@BoatworksToday: had a long run of black picture frames for xmas! #woodchat

@WatkinsWoodWork: Just looking at the entry forms. What kind of teaching/educational items are in mind? #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: @EliCleveland sounds like makers have their work cut out educating public about the value of good workmanship ( @theboisshop ?) #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: @woodshaver101 Sounds good, I’m just building inventory. #woodchat

@Morton: @SplinteredBoard @theboisshop You mean the santa sleigh? #woodchat

@jth: @Morton @renaissanceww Not interested in buying crap either. Hard to get going with hand tools only! #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: @uppercutwood verbatim #woodchat

@Furnitology: @Morton I’ve been watching and curious about how the look of the tension bend is viewed this year and is it your signature #woodchat

@hmwoodworks: @uppercutwood I hear that one all the time also. #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @alsiceofwood @MichaelAgate…dont mention hockey around michael…them Canadians go crazy over that stuff… :O) #woodchat

@SplinteredBoard: @Morton Is that what you guys are calling it? I just want to see it pass the stress test – 400lbs of woodworkers #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @uppercutwood That’s part of the prob. People don’t know what we do. Conferences with other woodworkers don’t bridge the gap. #woodchat

@swedishiron: @theboisshop lol, yes.. true.. you remind me of one big improvement this year #woodexpo2012 is many more organized social events #woodchat

@Morton: @EliCleveland Wow – 6 benches! Nice. Thinking of building a @hocktools plane while there. Maybe a give-away? #woodchat

@jth: @MansFineFurn @uppercutwood @elicleveland Tell them you’d love to and hammer a mimic out in painted pine? #woodchat

@asliceofwood: @Wood_Jedi @MichaelAgate I know, but the game is a good one #sabres & #rangers #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @EliCleveland I agree, WIA is different, but still necessary for skills building. The shows serve different purposes. #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: @elicleveland @furnitology are there specific educational ‘demos’ that are missing from the lineup? Maybe MWA can add to the event #woodchat

@Morton: @Furnitology Me too brother! Can’t wait to see what reaction it gets. And if there are any repeat visitors that will recognize? #woodchat

@jth: @MansFineFurn Perhaps part of the problem with a free show? #woodchat

@kring_l: another reason for missing #woodchat finishing the never ending poker table

@SplinteredBoard: @MansFineFurn Each year we’ve had a ball-and-claw demo, dovetail demos, but most is impromptu. We need to plan more #woodchat

@Morton: @allenworb @jth @renaissanceww Yeah – I definitely am looking forward to do the day I have time build that. Awesome. #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: @jth only free to the exhibitors, charge for visitors #woodchat

@uppercutwood: We’re almost done, any last questions for the #woodexpo2012 team? #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @MansFineFurn We’d love it! Email us at woodexpous@gmail.com! #woodchat

@BoatworksToday: So with the holidays over, are you taking a break or back at it in the shop? If so, what are you working on? #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @kring_l Id love to see a photo when its done..I have been wanting to do a poker table!! #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: Before folks start leaving, a reminder #ModernWoodworkers Boston Chapter Inaugural event will be at #WoodExpo http://t.co/edkImz2z #woodchat

@Furnitology: @Morton “if there are any repeat visitors that will recognize? ” yep exactly — that’s one of the reasons to use the opportunity #woodchat

@asliceofwood: Everyone have a good night and have fun at these shows. #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @BoatworksToday Season 3 #woodchat

@DJOfurnituremkr: See you next week guys. Wife & dog are calling/ #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @MichaelAgate… oooh i bet that is stressful… :O) #woodchat

@BoatworksToday: @DJOfurnituremkr Later! #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @DJOfurnituremkr See you later Dale #woodchat

@jth: @allenworb @morton @renaissanceww just finished Anarchist’s Tool Chest. Gotta finish (start) roubo first. Current bench worthless. #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: @MichaelAgate if her team loses when they face eachother, do you have to sleep in the shop??LOL #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: @EliCleveland I’m in touch with @furnitology (I owe him an email about the room); I sent you a link earlier http://t.co/edkImz2z #woodchat

@swedishiron: Make sure to stop by and spend time with Chuck Bender, Al Breed, Phil Lowe, Tommy Mac (batman), Eli (robin) and many woodworkers #woodchat

@Furnitology: Oh…weakness of #WoodExpo last year was after show internet content, that is a priority this year for exhibitors #woodchat

@jth: @allenworb @morton @renaissanceww very nice chest! #woodchat #NoNotThatChest

@Wood_Jedi: @MichaelAgate Smart Man!! I need a Tv in the shop! #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @Furnitology I’d love to help #woodchat

@SplinteredBoard: @Furnitology I agree. Both attendees, and our own coverage lacked. We’ll recover this year #woodchat

@EliCleveland: @Furnitology We’ve stepped up the social media, too. We want exhibitors to get their names out there. #woodchat

@allenworb: @jth any pictures? How did it come out? I have pile of Rick maple in garage for split top Roubo too #woodchat

@JimAAshley: Hi folks, sorry I’m late, just got home #woodchat

@Furnitology: @WatkinsWoodWork couldn’t resist–is the desk veneer over particle bd or printed #woodchat

@uppercutwood: @MansFineFurn “he’s mad at these cans!” #woodchat

@WoodworkGuy: #woodexpo2012 sounds like a great show for those in New England #woodchat

@EliCleveland: Thanks, everyone! This was fun. Goodnight. #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: Talk to you later @Woodworkguy , @JimAAShley , @MichaelAgate , @Asliceofwood, @uppercutcood great see you you all!! #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: just occurred to me part of the topic was the other shows too WIA and FWWLIVE. Quick poll: WIA-Cincy? WIA-Pasadena? FWWLive NY? #woodchat

@Wood_Jedi: as well as @BillGriggs and @Tumblewood and the many others to vast to mention.. :O) #woodchat

@WoodworkGuy: @MansFineFurn WIA Cincy for me #woodchat

@BillGriggs: RT @Wood_Jedi: as well as @BillGriggs and @Tumblewood and the many others to vast to mention.. :O) #woodchat

@JimAAshley: @Wood_Jedi @WoodworkGuy @MichaelAgate @asliceofwood Have a good one! #woodchat

@JimAAshley: Have a good night all #woodchat

@jth: @allenworb oh, no, sorry I meant just finished the book! #woodchat

@SMeekWoodworks: @MansFineFurn I’ll be at WIA Cincy and Fine Woodworking Live #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: WIA-Pas and FWWLive for me #woodchat

@Furnitology: RT @EliCleveland: Thats part of the prob. People dont know what we do-Conferences with other woodworkers dont bridge the gap. #woodchat

@SMeekWoodworks: If I can somehow swing WIA Pasadena, I’ll be there too, but I doubt it. #woodchat

@WoodworkGuy: I would love to go to Pasadena, cant justify the cost #woodchat

@MansFineFurn: OK, I guess those other shows will have to be a topic for another time…g’nite folks! #woodchat

@bmorewoodwork: I can’t swing any of the national conferences. Might need to find a local group! #woodchat

@FlairWoodworks: Whoops. I guess I missed #woodchat.

@MansFineFurn: Transcript is posted here: #ModernWoodworkers Association: About @WoodEXPOUS –the #Woodchat Transcript 2/1/2012 http://t.co/RGFo4Z2c
