Another lifestyle woodworker

This really happened today. Imagine if it were you. How would you feel if in nine days you'd taken 32 bits of oak and made 56 intersecting joints with about 10 hand tools?

This man is Rhodri Owen. He came to me three years ago and did a nine day class. The he invested in another class. He left that class and gave up his job to start working on his own as a lifestyle woodworker. His workshop was his grandfather's and he took it over and started building furniture. It's been a struggle, yes, but he's become a woodworker. How 'bout that! Real woodworking.
