Woodcraft guy came up to me as I looked at the wood stacks, asked if I
needed any help. I told him I was just listening to the wood to see which
piece spoke to me. He nodded.


I've had that happen at the dealer in Oakland, and the fellow has led me to
a 'special stack' set aside in the back, of extra nice boards. Some of
those are now in my wood rack, waiting for me to get good enough to be
worthy of building them into something really nice.

There are kindred spirits almost everywhere.
