I have for the first time looked at Mike's website. If you haven't, look at it now. Wood work as a hobby is one thing but what he has produced is an inspiration even if it so far beyond my abilities that I know I'll never match it.

Thank you Mike for letting us all see your work.

Oh, and I liked the joke.

Yeah - Tripod is annoying. But it was worth the hassel to see his work. Mike - hoping you invest in a better camera or scanner - a couple of pictures don't do your work justice!

[Mike Hide]

Yes Patrick photography certainly is not my forte despite trying to take good shots I seem to miss the mark . I will have to get a digital camera soon and see if that helps.

Just finished a walnut corner cabinet .every shot underexposed,perhaps that the writing on the wall ,regards ...mjh

Mike Hide responds:

The digital will help. Get one that allows manual focus, doesn't insist on having the on-camera flash on, and shoot with a brace (preferably a tripod) using the timer for release with room lights you arrange to have the light fall without glare.

If you HAVE to use on-camera flash, put 3 or 4 layers of tissue over it, or a doubled handkerchief, both of which reduce glare a fair amount.

BTW, excellent computer desk, Mike! I am designing and building something similar, if I ever get it finished I will post.

I'm sure I have gotten to Mike's site in the past without problems, but today Firefox 0.9.3 crashed. I sent the requested bug report to Netscape, but would still like to remark that my wife's site on tripod ($4.95/mo) doesn't have these annoyances at all
