Gift Yourself

We've been hearing some pretty sour news about the economy lately and just last night there was a segment talking about how retailers were going to be pulling out all the stops this year to spur sales.

Well Amazon is no exception. As you can see by the graphic below, the BIG sales have already begun. If you are in the need of some great tools, etc, now is the time to buy.

You may be tempted to hold off thinking that the discounts could go even deeper... I'm somewhat tempted to think the same way. BUT, what if a whole bunch of guys decide to buy and the retailer runs out? Chances are they won't be restocking in an effort to hold down inventories.

My advice - if you see something you want or need, and the price is well below market value - BUY IT NOW! You could always give that item as a gift to your favorite woodworker, or maybe gift the favorite recipient you know - YOU!!

Enjoy these deal opportunities.

Planning the Pack

Starting to excited about my move to the west coast. Not going to be taking much in the way of personal belongings with the exception of my tools. I began putting the tools aside that I want to take with me. Room is limited so I have to plan accordingly.

I have a living place lined up but there isn't any provision for a workshop so I will have to see what sort of garage or workspace rental I can find once I get to Palm Springs.

Pushing the Holidays

Because of my upcoming move, the family has decided to bump up Christmas this year. This means that I have to get all my presents made a lot sooner than usual. This is going to be an even bigger task given all the additional chores I have to do and all the irons I have in the fire.

Going to keep it simple though and stick with signs. Everyone loves them and even a very personal sign is easy to design and carve out. To make them special, I use some nice woods and put a handsome finish on them.

Some Great Deals

wow - just happened to be snooping around ebay this morning and noticed there were quite a few Carvewright items listed. Looks like someone is going to get a nice deal or two.
