Interesting. When I was considering leaving my corporate job 20+ years ago, one of Chris's associates told me "the world is full of ex-professional woodworkers paying off IRS debts." I I think that is the one that was a former professional furniture maker and currently runs a donut shop.

To this little place... To do a "Meet & Greet" with this guy.. Who was working on the arm spindles of a chair...use just a block plane... 7 benches were in the front room...so. They had enough for each bench....I did get to see Megan's Bench....way shorter than any of the others, BTW.. Ever want to just sit down and work beside a bench? This can be raised to suit, and rotated to where you are working... THE "A" Chest...I did get to paw around in it..did not try to open the Dutch Chest.. Those clamps have a rack to hold them... If you had the $52 cash in hand.. You could buy one of these Iron Planing stops...block of wood not included.. An "Add-a-vise", fits through a round dog hole...That angled thingy to the right? Bench leg is angled, so is the leg vise..and the lower Keeper rail, as well... This was hanging on the wall over by the Dutch Tool Chest.... Picked a few (FREE!) goodies....then stopped at a Barn sale on the way home...Lunch was back in the Dayton OH area..Carillon Brewery. Want to thank a Mr. Eric Brown for this trip....I drove 1/2 way, met him at his house, and he drove the rest of the way to Covington,KY...then Lunch, then back to his house... Gene: He now has the 2 Craftsman #3720 ( Sargent No. 79) planes...as I am having him Nickel Plate both of them... Will try to get a few photos of the free goodies, later...and the $2 Mitrebox and Saw...we'll see Perfect weather..traffic was better than the usual idiots ....other than a Semi that broke down ON the KY side of the bridge.... I'm Pooped...the day started @0600 this morning...just now getting home.. Place is called Lost Art Press, and was one of TWO open houses they will have each year.
