      Her work is ridiculous. I could see a custom gun maker paying her a lot to decorate a high dollar weapon. If she does more woodwork, she could produce a drool worthy rifle.

    As I have said to Anne in a comment on one of her videos, I am so pleased to see women demonstrating that woodworking is not just for men. You two are so very talented and so much fun to watch. My daughters can watch your videos and see that women can achieve just as much as we men, while having fun and being feminine.

    Sassafras trees bring back so many memories. In middle school we had to do leaf collections for school and they grow plentiful here in Indiana. I remember collecting leaves for the project and sassafras was one of my favorites because they smell spicy :) Years later I got to share the same experience as I helped my son with his collection. The chair is beautiful and will make a great shop chair!!

    That stool is on point girl, beautiful in form and color scheme. Being from Texas I can't believe you never had a sip of Sassafras tea, but it mostly grows on the East side of the state. We used to dig the roots up and then they were boiled into a very spicy tea that honey or sugar was added to sweeten. Good stuff and yes was used to make Root Beer back in the day. It is a hard wood to work but much like Osage Orange and Mulberry (also Texas natives) very much worth it do to the shear beauty of the wood.

    Hello Ms April. Root beer used to be made from sassafras until about 1960. The sassafras was causing liver damage, so it was stopped being used for root beer. Sassparilla and other things are mainly used for root beer now. Nice work on the stool. Best regards.

    Ohhhh my gosh, this turned out beautifully! Wood is amazing! I grew up watching my dad hand plane and carve in his wood shop. He made some of the most beautiful furniture. I'm guessing that's where I got my desire to start building stuff, first being the small coop of yours. I'm almost done with it! I can't wait to get more practice and experience with wood so I can start making wood projects with different types of wood. Like mahogany, cherry, oak.... gahhh! I can't wait!!!! I want to try to make a butcher block for my first mixed "fancy" wood project.
    Also, I just wanted to say how stinking much I LOVE your channel. I have watched other wood working channels but there is something pretty darn cool about a female wood worker. One day I hope to gain enough experience to build some of the beautifl stuff you've built.
