As we turn to the new year, we are grateful for a full worklist and a busy shop. We are grateful to our customers (most of all), our friends, the vendors that supply us with our wonderful materials, and the many businesses that work with us to keep us smart, strong and successful.
And we know there are many out there that are trying to get a leg-up. We know many of them are very talented, creative and savy. We know many of them just need a boost and they’ll be successful.
So, for the first post of the new year, I thought it would be fun to highlight some of those creatives that are preparing to begin the great adventure of making wood products. I went to Kickstarter to find them. Here are few that caught my eye…

If you’ve never been to Kickstarter before, I highly recommend a visit. You’ll find all kinds of creative people who have creative ideas and just need that initial helping hand to get them going. Investing in a project on Kickstarter is a great way to be involved in the success of another, and you can invest at the level that’s comfortable for you – often as little as $5 or $10. Check it out. See what’s brewing out there. Hopefully, if we all help each other out, 2013 will be a successful year for many.
