Bill Houghton, cold and rainy in Sebastopol, CA

>...sounds very interesting. I suppose eventually, you'll get over your initial tendency to spend the whole day drooling.

Side question of the above-the-49th-parallel northerners here: in a nation that is generally quite conscientious about its grammar, why the Maple Leafs rather than Maple Leaves?

Re: Congrats Steve!

Todd O. Cronkhite Maine Native now in Jax Fl.

>Sheeesh! Seems to that you just joined us a short time ago as a very rank beginner and now you're bucking your way up to Robs chair! Man o

man if that dosen't warrent a ultra-mega YOU SUCK x ka-jillions and ka-jillions nothing does!

GOOD ON YA'!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hopefully Rob will have a packet of Sniffing Salts handy at alll times at least for the first 6 months to bring you around when you pass out from the over-load of goodies.

Also, be aware that excessive drooling can cause sever dehydration so carry pleny of water with you at all times, you may even want to consider getting one of those Camel Backs which is a water bag that you carry on your back like a backpack.

Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh!

Frank D. in Montreal

>Congratulations Steve!

You could have picked a better company, but I guess LV will have to do... Does this mean I can get a discount since we're such good friends? ;^)

Derek Cohen (in Perth, Australia)

>Congratulations Steve! The way Rob collects tools I am sure that you will require several supercomputers to keep track of it all. :)

Maple Leafs? Is that a girl scout group? Real Men play rugby (union rules, of course). :)

Congratulations!

>What kind of work will you be doing there? I'm curious, and a bit envious...

Lots of fun to see the Leafs get a beating, eh?

Welcome to the bevel up world... Great place to be...

>Congratulations! Will you be moving to the far north! Or can you do that kind of think locally?

Re: Awesome week and wekend...gloat!

Alice Frampton, UK

>Cripes, Steve, you're getting a move on with that chair all of a sudden. There I was coasting along thinking I was way ahead of you too :~( Congrats on the job; you sucketh mightily. Inventory control? So will it be you we can complain to if something's out of stock...? ;~)

Cheers, Alf

Re: Awesome week and wekend...gloat!

Steve Kubien

>Well, you can complain at the new downtown Toronto store but I suspect you would deal with Ottawa for the most part. Yeah, the chair is coming along. I've got the saddling done. Now it is time to shape the bottom and start boring the legs...later this week.

Cheers,

Steve Kubien

Beat me to it...

Scott in Douglassville, PA

>...on the "You suck!" If that ain't the gloat of the year...

So, where're the chair pics? I wanna see the travisher, too. What sweep iron did you get? And are you finishing with the travisher? Sounds like you're having fun. Congrats all 'round.

Clay C in Miami

>Many congrats Steve! - I can imagine the relief.

I've thought the same thing about the Leafs - of course, any nation with such sports oxymora as the 'Utah Jazz' or 'Los Angeles Lakers' has little room to cast stones ... (Admittedly, the accuracy of 'Utah Choir Music' or the 'Los Angeles Dry Gulches' is no improvement.)

Jim Crammond in Monroe, Mi.

>Steve,

Congratulations on all of your news (except the colds, of course).

Glad to hear that the chairmaking is coming along. I have to agree with you that using a drawknife and spokeshave on green wood is about as fun as it gets.

I didn't know you were a Red Wing fan. ("Whilst listening to the Maple Leafs lose in glorious fashion (few things give me greater joy)").

Jim

Brad in Ottawa

>Steve,

Congrats on the job! Does this mean that we might see you in Ottawa?

Keep posting about your chair progress! I really enjoy the updates and it inspires (kicks me in the butt) to go out and do the things I want to do in the shop!

Dave Anderson Chester, NH

>Not to worry about the new boss Steve. I heard from VERY reliable sources that he's at a trade show and won't be back until the 13th. He also supposedly has very limited access to the internet during this time. But then again, you can't be too careful. He's fooled us before.

Congratulations on your new job.

Dave

Major congrats! Best of luck!
