Something to think on!...AGAIN!
« on: February 20, 2011, 01:27:25 am »
TEN months ago this Forum did not exist except in the mind and computer of Steve Good!

In those 10 short months...

1454 members

Added a "Computer Questions" section

An untold number of patterns have been designed and shared

Now we have a brand new easy to use Catalog of Steve's 700+ Patterns

Innumerable questions have been answered and problems resolved

Hints and tips of all kinds have been passed on to others

More than a few 'smiles' have been passed around to lift our spirits

Pleas for Prayers and even Help have been answered with an immediacy that boggles the mind

And to top it all off a large group of total strangers, for the most part, literally from around the globe NOW consider each other 'Family'!

Steve, you must certainly smile often to yourself!

Once Again...

THANK  YOU !

And thanks for Russ for keeping it friendly! And thanks to Graybeard, Cherie, Marcel, Dawie, BillP and many, many more for your friendship. and a special thanks to Grampa Paul for all his wonderful patterns he does!
Thank you All!

Having been here for 5 months or so and lurked a little before that, I totally agree! If I miss a day here I feel like I really missed something. I may be addicted to all your friendship!  :) A day without the scroll saw forum is like a day without nourishment!  :) :) Thanks Steve! and all my scroll saw friends!
I gave appreciation to all of you on my blog previously today!

Getting my saw, and finding this forum, are two of the best things that has happened to me in a long time.  I appreciate everyone who has welcomed me and given me advise.  With out Steve it would not be possible.

Interesting sidebar!

Until I got into this hobby I never realized how many ladies are interested in wood working!

I agree with all of you.  When I used to watch my kids on various chat groups, I used to think that I would never be involved in one.  WELL...here I am.   And I find I can't wait to log in every morning and through the day, to see what the rest of the family has to say. 

And thanks to Steve, Paul, and the rest who have been so much help.
