Hey everyone,
Hope everybody is doing well. I just wanted to share with you all a joint project Jameel Abraham completed with another fellow renowned woodworker, Christopher Schwarz, a
little while back. I hope you find it interesting. I was lucky enough to see this tool chest in person a couple of months ago when I visited Jameelo
for the weekend. Needless to say, it is a masterpiece. I was also fortunate enough to see him and his family (who are all very talented individuals in
their own right) in their element, as I was there the same weekend as the Handworks 2015 event. Jameel and his brother, Fr. John, coordinated the whole event for
custom hand tool makers around the world to come and showcase their amazing tools. The setting was incredible and the weekend was a huge success. The
next time Jameel and Fr. John do a Handworks show, I highly recommend trying to attend. It was an amazing experience for me, and I am not a
woodworker. Anyway, be sure to watch the video and look at the pictures of Jameel in action. You won't be disappointed!
In other news, my wife and I are expecting our second child any day now. So that will definitely be keeping me busy. I am happy to see that the forums
are continually alive and well with interesting discussions and input from members all throughout the world. A huge thanks to Greg and Samir for their
continued help with the forums, as I am unable to keep up as much as I would like to have in the past. That's probably only going to get worse very
soon. Thanks guys! Lastly, thanks to all the members for making these forums a huge resource for anything and everything oud related and then some.
This wouldn't be possible without you all, and I wish I could name you all, but I just wouldn't want to forget anybody.
Ok, enough from me...go enjoy the incredible craftsmanship of our good friend Jameelo!
Seeya,
Mike
