Re: Message board buttons

I voted for the rectangular with screen-name version. Those with the longer names will like the way it looks as well. I also like the fact that it has the name of the board spelled out, which explains the pin and lets people know you're into wood. Of course the...

Re: Our Friend Ron Davidson

How you doing Ron? Do any more masterpieces to make use drool? I agree with Thor "You're definitely a carver." and if I may add to that, a talented one at that!

Re: Snow from Ohio

It wasn't even close to the storm back in `78{?}!
