Waiting on some wood...

[lightsoutcalls]

Is it just me, or does anyone else feel like a kid waiting for Christmas when you order wood?  I just ordered a piece of quarter-sawn padauk and a piece of canarywood with "high color contrast".  When I get home from work and find the cardboard wrapped boards, they go straight to the shop where they are immediately opened for inspection/admiration.   Some people just don't understand...

Since I have only been at this turning mess for about 3 or 4 months, every day is christmas for me. It does not matter if I am in a local store looking at wood, ordering on line or going to a buddies shop to "borrow" some wood.... Christmas everyday for me!

You guys have it bad, but that keeps me looking for Christmas in the mail in a complete call.

I feel like a crack head with a brand new rock. Once I burn through it, I gotta get some more.

You betcha  I've been waiting on a load of olive, seems like forever and it showed up the other morning. I was out the door like a cat with his tail on fire and half way down the drive before I noticed the snow and ice, dang that stuff is cold on your bare feet  .

I love it when I get some new wood, my best friend owns a wood supply company and he is constanly bringing me something cool. He brought me some Padauk and Figured Sapele last week. Got to love it!!!!
