The man, the legend, Dave Lynas.
I was thinking of Dave, and it’s been a year since he passed. A great inspiration and a fantastic human being.
We miss you Dave.

Great picture of Dave getting it done with his high end tools (Harbor Freight, yeah!) We definitely lost a significant voice at CBN.

Sadly missed by all of us CBN Members, I personally learnt a lot from him over the years, but I have no idea what the object is he is sanding??, and I'm sure many will agree that the CBN site has been become a lot quieter since his sad passing. ;-{

Yup. I miss him too. Just drank a cup of tea out of my Dave cup and my screen saver is some of his art. He looks strong and healthy in this pic. Can you tell what is that object that he'd been sanding?
