Photobucket Over at Lumberjocks when you post one of your projects you receive feed back from other Lumberjocks. For me this was a vital part of my woodworking journey. Not only do you start to feel as if you know these people, you end up really looking forward to what they have to say about your projects whether you receive constructive criticism or you get compliments, which for me has been a great ego booster and allowed me to be able to feel alright about posting my woodwork and making this blog about it. Martin the creator of Lumberjocks has added a way to place links of your posts on your personal blog. So I am now going to place the link to the items that I have posted here AND at Lumberjocks so that if you wish to click on it, you will see what other Lumberjocks have said about my particular project. If you are a woodworker and have not joined Lumberjocks yet, this may just be the push you need when you read the wonderful comments from this great group of people! And if you do join, please tell them Allison sent ya!

I know that I said when I started this site I would not bring up anything too personal. It looks like I am going to make myself a bit of a liar. I would much rather say I am perhaps more guilty of a half truth on my part.
I have started Twitter under the name wood-alley when I found out they were doing an "Arts" section where you can meet people and follow them through the arts. I truly do not know a whole lot about this "Twitter" but always found it on the fascinating side and decided to join up mainly when I read some fellow Lumberjocks were doing the same. So I did , then I found the Arts thing, then I started getting into it but was getting no response! Then it's on the pity potty for me, until just now! When a gal named Michelle took the time to tell me she tried to follow my link to this site and it did not work. Lo and behold, perhaps a little too much vibration from all the band-saws and scroll saws, or perhaps (and most likely) just a major screw up on my part as I forgot to put the - in woodalley .Michelles site is the link to a gal I do not know but whom took the time to tell me that , well, all my saws have vibrated my brains out!
Or perhaps the truth,
That I forgot to put the - in wood-alley.
Thanks Michelle
