I have a simple request for each of you. PLEASE consider putting where you are located in your profile so that it is displayed on your posts. I always look for that piece of info. Part of the fun of participating in a forum is to know where the other contributors are located. It adds something to the discussion.

For example, early on I noticed that Denny Friedel is located in Seaford, Delaware. It so happens that Seaford is my home town and I have occasional reasons to visit there. I just might hook up with Denny for a quick visit to his shop.

This request is coming from Burnt Chimney, Virginia, :D :D

Hello Ed,

I like your suggestion, I have also wondered where others are located. I live in the SMALL town of Texas (not even on the map) next to Clinton, IL. The land of corn and soy beans, and right now solid ice. If you are ever in the area, stop in and we can give it a turn. I have included a photo of our internet, web home page, it gives me a warm feeling this time of the year.

Hi Ed;
I live on an acerage on a mountainside just out of Wynndel, British Columbia , Canada.
That is just about 6 miles north of the USA/Canada border at the top of the Idaho panhandle.
I have had many woodworking forum freinds visit me from many parts of USA and Canada. The coffee 's always on here.
Here is what I have to put up with when looking out my shop window (depending on the season). That is overlooking the beautifull Creston Valley rich in agriculture, fruit orchards and forestry related businesses.

I'm noticing many n oo b's (and others) have not yet added where they are located (approximately is good) in their settings.

I'm replying to Ed Moore's post to bring it up to the top of the forum again.

I started a thread with this same question in April of this year. It got seven pages of favorable responces but nothing changed. I would like to see everyone go back and update their profile with a location. I would also like to see something added to the profile page that encourages newbes to include this information when the create their profile for tyhe first time.

What does N oo B mean anyway?
Newbie (new to forum.) Post one more message and you will be a member rather than a N oo B. (it takes 5 message posts--photos come and go so they do not seem to affect the count the same way.) (Check out Help, Rules & FAQ for a list of forum "member catagories".)

I live in N. Wi. on a gorgeous lake in the woods. I have
8 ft. of glass over looking the lake on one end of the studio.
Sometimes it's real hard to stay interested in turning.
