3rd! Guess I swung and missed.
It was awesome seeing this in person and purchasing a piece to take home. I got 13/200 🎉
My wife and I kept checking back in to see how it changed as more came off.
Thankful for you David and making creativity in the wood shop fun 😊
Hey neighbor, it was great meeting you! Thanks for coming out!
What a collosal piece! Turned out looking great.
Done! See Ya!

Years ago I was going to try rehabbing vintage sewing machines and house them in glueups made by pallet board strips in the same way (minus the vacuum bag)…..but the plan fell apart when people didn’t trust the shipping and handling etc. So now I’m gonna make some bookshelf speakers instead and just called “palletive audio”.😊
Hope the show is a huge success, and that you learn lots from the experience. I’ve enjoyed watching you prepare for it.
Your craziness is infectious – whenever I make a mistake in the shop now, I change direction completely and make an artwork from it. Good luck David.
Yes yes yes! Thank you!
😭 Please tell me they’re not all gone already… 🙏 I’ll be there for the closing Saturday.
Plenty left!
Truly wonderful work, Dave! It turned out amazing! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Awesome piece! I feel like you need a special award for using up that much scrap too 😀
If only you had cut out some sort of channel or groove around the lettering that you could pour in an epoxy, paint, stain, or something to make the letters pop from the background. That would have been nice.
