While we were visiting Timbertown a few weeks ago, Norm and I spent some time looking at items made by a local wood craftsman. I mentioned to Norm that I would love a large cheese board but we found nothing that I liked or big enough. Norm said he could try and make one. This seemed a good idea because now that he’s retired he is often looking for something to do but this was not one of his academic projects. We were given the phone number of the suppler who invited us to his property to view his huge shed full of all his wood. Well, I fell in love with some beautiful pieces but they were much too big. We were able to take one home to see if would work but we returned it because it was too much work for Norm who had never attempted anything like this. As you can see all his measurements and calculations went out the window.



Not bad for an academic’s first handyman project except I still need a cheese board.

Great choice. Super work. A chessboard will be a doddle

It’s almost a piece of art.

It is a piece of art, Chrissy. I meant cheeseboard, of course.

I knew what you meant. It was probably the cyber gremlins. 😉 We had a laugh. It happens a lot on WordPress.
