Woodwork humour
Posted By WoodWorker on March 4, 2010
You know you’re a woodworker if/when:
1. You know the wood species of each of the splinters in your hands.
2. You line up your splinters after removing them from your hands and try to identify them.
3. when driving the wife wants you to look at a nice house and all you see is the trees around it.
4. You cut a huge gash in your thumb with a chisel and instead of being concerned about the blood spilling from the wound, you’re proud that you honed the chisel to razor-sharp. At least the cut will heal faster!
5. You dream about tools, sometimes even daydream.
