An endless opportunity for knowledge

Forestry, wood products, wood working and environmental issues, they all create an endless learning opportunity. I always enjoy learning something new.Not a day goes by where I have not been able to read, watch or listen to someone teaching a new subject. So many topics to cover on a vast array of subjects make the above careers unbelievable when you explore deeper and really research and inspire yourself to grasp what is being taught. My father told me a few years ago to listen closely to everyone, as everyone we encounter in life, whether young or old, can teach us something new. For they have learned something from someone that we have never come in contact with. Simple things like talking to the environmental groups and listening closely to how they understand and know the land and the issues surrounding them, to the back yard craftsman who knows a special way to configure certain cutting patterns or has remedies for homemade finishes for his wood products past down from his forefathers that make his products shine like the morning sun, or the young lad in the bush who is colour blind but is able to see the shape and texture and defect patterns in the solid and rotten wood before him. Endless opportunities exist and it creates a very special place when they are combined.Welcome to corkboot.com. Remember take a tree not a Forest.
