Good Morning from Jesse

[Tsavo]

Hi all! Just stumbled upon this forum this AM (woke up about 0230, been up ever since).

Been scrolling about 12+ years, much more seriously for the last yr. Took the plunge and purchased an Excalibur EX-21 in Spring 2006, and hummin' along ever since.

I'm AD USAF, been in almost 23 yrs. Guess I made it a career after all. Got a couple more to go before I retire.....

I built myself a new, personal website over the Christmas holidays, link below if you would like to check 'er out....would appreciate some feedback on how it's running, page speeds, etc.

That's a very impressive website you've produced - and impressive woodwork too! I found it very easy to navigate and no delays.

Welcome aboard Jesse, I too am military and counting down the years (I hit 20 in May 07). Myself I am just a grunt (11B) and recently returned from the sandbox.

[Tsavo]

Thanks Todd. So are you retiring at 20?

Finally posted some photos just now....

[Rivari]

Me retire, heck no...I think we as a family have decided going to 30 is my calling. Besides what does an Infantryman do in the civilian world...mall security? lol

I check out your photos and left a few comments, nice work on all though, very mipressive.

[Tsavo]

Thanks Rivari, sent you a private message....

[Trout]

nice work...

as I was going through your site I noticed that you had a qoute in the gallery section from Toni Burghout, "craft becomes art when the work isn't mass produced but made to be original and not just like the last one".

I never seen that qoute before and it sure got me to thinking.
you know how hard I tried to get my Mallard ducks to look just like the picture?

thank for sharing your site with us...

Thanks, and your welcome Trout! I believe I found that quote on this very forum (when I joined a few days ago) to be exact and I emailed her for permission to use it on my site.....

No Todd not mall security, Scrolling Artisan.
