Hi John from South Carolina. So glad you joined our group. Your photos are gorgeous, you are definitely a master at carpentry. It would be great if you posted some of those photos in our photo forum.

Welcome John, I saw your gallery, all I can say is WOW! My hubby would be love to be your neighbor, he loves woodworking too as he is a carpenter and disabled now after a severe back problem.
You have done some beautiful work and "extreme" is putting it mildly with all the detail and dramatic artistic talent you have.
The grandaughter is a charm, I don't think I've ever seen such beautiful big blue eyes. She's definitely a keeper!:) Thanks for sharing your gallery and hope you enjoy the forums.

I watched the show on Animal Planet. Honestly they really could have skipped the pink pooch and given you a little bit more time but I loved seeing your work and you. I taped it so I could share it with my husband. I got a chuckle when he said HOLY COW that guy is really good. I said I’ll tell him you said so then had to explain how I knew you.

Thank you Peggy and Bernie for the warm welcome .

Peggy , I had to move because the owner wanted to tear everything down .I ended up buying a 1/2 acre place with a 1,300 sq ft shop so everything turned out great. I still have room for birdhouses .:D

Thanks again Bernie , Animal Planet just released the video online now so everyone can see it . :)
