– William James

My woodworking mentor, John Burt, San Jose, CA, always asked clients what they wanted the piece to be for. This sometimes got the client to express a future view for the piece, usually in terms of donating to family members. It is always a question I ask myself when planning art pieces. Some I made in 1976 still look like they did when made. And that is for pieces that hang on a wall and are never touched. The real longevity test is making childrens furniture! 8-)
Okay, I’m dumb. I bought the box with the drill and router bit to put in a series of holes in the top of my bench. I’ve had a few projects going and some help in cleaning up my shop. Now, I can not find the box. I’m sure it had some dogs in it too. The stupid question is do you mail out in a flat postage box and / or what size would the box be? I know it’s got to be the dumbest question you have received.
Thanks for your help. Rick Lucier

Hi Rick,
I asked Garth, who shipped the EasyDog Hole Kit to you, to address your question. Let me know if you didn’t receive an e-mail from him.
