Do You want to be a Woodworker but need plans?

Have to reminisce to the past a few moments and think of my Grandpa Veach. He was a woodworker and made many things for all the grand-kids in his basement. He loved working with wood and made such things as a spinning wheel for my Grandma and he made these fabulous scroll wall clocks for all the grandchildren. I will treasure mine forever. He also made baby doll cribs, knife handles and telephone stands, too many things to mention them all. When I was a girl I loved to go into the basement and play in the pile of sawdust under grandpa’s saw. Now if this sounds like something that you would like to get into or are already like working with wood but need the plans to work with I’ve found just what you need. There are over 14,000 Woodworking Plans with step-by-step instructions, photos and diagrams to make every project easy. Wouldn’t you like to make something special that will bring back memories of you even after you’re gone. It was Grandpa’s worst day when the Dr. told him he could no longer work around the sawdust because of emphysema, he had always smoked a pipe and the Dr. told him he had to quit that also. I was older and asked Grandpa if it was going to bother him to give up his pipe and he said “I smoked that pipe for 35 years and decided it was beginning to become a habit”. He put his pipes away, stopped working with the wood and lived quite a long time after.
