Welcome to Wood Talk, for Woodworkers by Woodworkers.

Now here are three guys who are actually under the illusion at Woodworking is cool. Mark, Matt, and Shannon.

Welcome to Wood Talk Number 303 for April 4th, 2016. On today's show we're talking about chisel handling, loobing plunge posts, and choosing

hardware. But, you know, I have to say it's a would talk first. Mark is not here. It's just Matt and I. Oh boy.

Is you okay? I think he got a splinter. He had to go to the doctor because he got a splinter or

stubbed his toe or something. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. It's very

unprofessional Mark. I'm really disappointed in you. It's been two or

303 episodes and you missed one.

So I don't know.

We need to question his commitment, I think.

Missing one show out of 303 is pretty bad.

I'm a little worried to be honest.

I know.

It's the beginning of the end. It's lacking lately. We're going to have to start looking for another mark. Because again, we're too lazy to change the intro. We had to find another mat. Now we just got to go find another mark. So if your name is mark, we'll be accepting applications somewhere. We just haven't figured out where yet.

All right, so I do want to say welcome to Wood Talk. I'm really excited to be playing the host role today. I don't really know what to do with myself.

Normally this is where we talk about people who donated stuff but that's all information that Mark grabs because he has the keys to that particular closet.

So if you donated something, thank you.

And I apologize, I don't know what your name is, because Mark didn't give me the keys to that closet I don't

get that till I've been on the show for 12 years so you've got that to look forward to

Matt soon you've all the years yeah to that closet I don't know long way away

it's a long way away. Who knows? In 12 years,

podcasts, well, I don't know what podcasts will be in 12 years. They'll be virtual reality
