About Tony

I’m sort of the back woodsy sort of fellow, and I truly want to keep the ole arts, crafts, and technologies alive. It really distorts me to know that so much knowledge is being lost. Although there may be books on the subject, unless someone keeps it alive ‘the knowledge will be lost forever’! As you can tell by my photo, I like the Woodrights shop and Mr. Roy Underhill is a hero of mine. This style of woodworking is (to me) the best in the world. It’s getting back to the basics, back to the ole world technique and the ole school of wood working. Kudos to Mr. Underhill, he is a guru to be sure!

"Yes, what happened is I followed The Duggers recipe and it didn't work so I added to that another Kirks Castile bar soap and another cup of Borax and Arm and Hammer laundry soda, it then did gel up more. Thanks for your reply... Looks like we are neighbors!"
