[Shane Nyvall]

Well I would like to start off by saying, "Hello my name is Shane and I am a woodaholic.." My dad turned me on to this site and back into woodworking.

[Andy Hoyt]

Hi Shane. Glad you found us. Your old man wouldn't be that mischievious Ernie fellow would he?

You know - the guy who washes his tractor by driving it into the pond.

[Christopher K. Hartley]

You know - the guy who washes his tractor by driving it into the pond.Don't pay Capt'n Andy any mind Shane. He's still sore cause he can't wash his tractor in the northern pond until about the first of April, if he's lucky.:p If you are Ernie's son you got quite a O'l man there! Welcome to to Vortex and sharpen that chainsaw!! Now, being a Woodaholic is one thing but the question on everyones mind is...are you a Spinaholic?:confused: Planks is flat work and we specialize in mast and rum barrel work here.:eek: Either way, great to have ya aboard matie...Arrrrrrhh!:D

[John Hart]

....You know - the guy who washes his tractor by driving it into the pond.

You say that as if there's something wrong with that.:rolleyes:

Welcome Shane! Any son of Ernies is a son of mine. Don't ask me for money though.:D

[Shane Nyvall]

Yes that is my dad, and that is what happens when you put a loose nut behind the wheel. You might be a redneck if you wash your tractor by driving it into your pond. He made my grandmother the most outstanding christmas ornament (sp).

[Keith Burns]

Oh No !!! Ernie has reproduced !!. Everyone run, run for your lives :D :)

[Travis Stinson]

[Barry Stratton]

HELLO Shane! I look forward to seeing your work.

[Shane Nyvall]

HELLO Shane! I look forward to seeing your work.

And about that lawnmower incident.....was your dad REALLY trying to trim the weeds in the pond??????

Knowing him I would say no. I bet he was wondering how close he could get to the pond before falling in.

[Jim Becker]

Welcome, Shane! Don't mind all the Moxie shown by your fellow wood-o-holics...

[Dennis Peacock]

Yes that is my dad, and that is what happens when you put a loose nut behind the wheel. You might be a redneck if you wash your tractor by driving it into your pond. He made my grandmother the most outstanding christmas ornament (sp).

First of all....Welcome to SMC Shane!!!!!!! Glad to have ya aboard.

2nd of all, I'm wondering if Ernie created your grandmother's Christmas ornament on the lathe or while he was riding the tractor around in the pond getting all the cried dirt off of it? :p :p :rolleyes: :D

[Tom Sherman]

Welcome aboard Shane brace yourself you have fallen in with a bunch of looney's.

[Shane Nyvall]

Sir I was in a family with a bunch of looney's.;) :p

[Ernie Nyvall]

Hey! hey! HEY!!! I'll have you all know that the lawn mower incident led to a Lawn Mower/Hovercraft. No more worries about falling in... just wish the fish would quit coming to the surface for food while I'm out there.:eek:

Oh yea, welcome my son. Be... Do... Have... Turn...

For your first lesson... keep your tongue in your mouth while turning wormy wood.... unless they are those meaty ones.



Now go and walk the earth.

[Shane Nyvall]

Thanks I will keep that in mind. :( :confused:

[Mark Cothren]

Oh yea, welcome my son. Be... Do... Have... Turn...

For your first lesson... keep your tongue in your mouth while turning wormy wood.... unless they are those meaty ones.

Now go and walk the earth.

Welcome Shane... you're Ernie's son? You just got added to my prayer list... ;)

[Shane Nyvall]
