So I gave a buddy of mine who is an avid woodworker an old bandsaw I was not using. He was so appreciative he made me an 11×14 custom pochade box! He posted pics last night for me to find haha! Looks fantastic! Pretty special piece.

Give and you will receive… You have been twice blessed with a great friend and that beautiful “Custom-Made” Pochade box! That really is a beautiful example of your friends artistry with wood. Enjoy it!

Thanks! You are right… Good friends are the best reward for anything. I am a big believer in what you put out in the world will come back to you in kind. Maybe not always in the ways you might imagine, but kindness breeds kindness and misery breeds misery, so why not just be kind!

So, you not only have a friend, but your friend is a talented wood-worker, too. Go ahead, rub it in.

Seriously, you are so lucky to have such a friend. Hope you share some works you paint with it.
