Mr. Nakashima's works are legendary. His story a picture of a true craftsman who loved his craft. With that said, I would gladly proclaim my pride in owning a Patriot Wood Worker original. Wait! I already do, it was a gift, and it is sitting on the desk in front of me and I write with it on an almost daily basis and I wouldn't trade it for the world. Edited May 7, 20188 yr by schnewj

All occupy places of honor in our house and the shop. Our kids own a lot more, though.

"Born In Date" of 2015 makes it even more special...this WILL NOT be in the Estate Sale but passed down to oldest grandson with the story. 5 hours ago, schnewj said: I already do, it was a gift, and it is sitting on the desk in front of me and I write with it on an almost daily basis and I wouldn't trade it for the world.

I read it everyday, I post to it almost everyday, and I get a laugh at least once a day, but usually more. To me, TPW is a gift.

And they DO say that laughter is the best medicine. Heck, I've gotten off three medications since I joined up! John
