| | You Might be a Woodcarver While searching the net for info i ran across an artical called "If....you might be a woodcarver" and i had to post the same here to find your answers. "If you try pressing your shavings together to make a new peice of wood to carve because you've run out, you might be a woodcarver." "If you can't remember where you live but can remember to location and address to every woodcraft store in a 5 state area, you might be a woodcarver"
These are a couple i thought of, now it's your turn. Have fun with this thread.

You leave a cloud of fine sawdust in the air when you walk by
you have more than 3 knives in your pocket at any time
you have a shelf (or room) full of pretty colored firewood!  |

| | Re: You Might be a Woodcarver If the wife complains about the woodchips on her side of the bed.
When people continually ask what happened to your hand.
When your wife complains that you spend too much time on your silly message board.
When you owe more to your tool supplier than to the IRS.

| | Re: You Might be a Woodcarver You think beavers are competition.
That someone talks to you and you don't hear them because you are studing how to carve their hair line.
someone shows you a new knife and you ask if they want it sharpened.
you go to the lumber store to get a fence post and study the grain pattern.
You take the family to the zoo and the first words out of your mouth are ..."Nice Trees'
You take a walk in a park and you describe the tress in three classes ....Good to carve .....Hard to carve ...firewood |

| | Re: You Might be a Woodcarver You might be a woodcarver when - - - you hear of a conspiracy of beavers to assasinate you
- you are a one-man anti-softwood export lobby
- you drive past a pulp mill and envy them their chip-piles
- you're caught sneaking into a sawmill
- you speak of your favourite chips, you are NOT talking about potatoes
