I was going to let Tara post this but she's been feeling a bit under the weather lately and I feel that something needs to be said.

Rodger (FirstWarrior) is an amazing artist that does ridiculous things with wood. Tara got to poking around his website and saw a bunch of things that she just fell in love with (She's the artsy type). I contacted Rodger and told him how much we liked his art. A few days later, one of the pieces that Tara kept going on about magically appeared at our doorstep.

We are blown away sir. Absolutely floored. There are not enough words to say thank you. I can tell you that it will be used and cherished for many many years to come. Every time we use it, we'll think about "an old Jarhead". Semper Fi brother.

    Very nice! I love woodworking and have always wanted to learn to turn.
