You are at work looking at your desk top figuring how to cut it up for the best looking blanks.

You quit appologizing to your wife about tracking saw dust into the house, telling her that it makes the place look rustic and you like it.

Your wife's new car has never been parked in the garage because that's where you store your "good" wood.

Others?????
 
Wood barter.com is your home page on your computer
 
If your first "clicks" in the morning are on WoodBarter.com ...

If your second "clicks" in the morning are on Craigslist "tools"...

If you write more on woodworking forums than you write to family or friends...
 
When your wife tells you that you spend too much time on Woodbarter, and your reply is, "But honey, I have to, I'm a moderator!"
 
When you bring a piece of wood to bed to look at while in bed....
 
While driving you pay more attention to trees down on the side of the road than the road itself.

You random knock on people's doors to ask their intentions for the tree down in their yard

You plan a return trip just after dusk...

You have convinced your wife that she needs to be looking for downed trees and burls on her side of the road. She's pretty good too.
 
When you cant build a fire because you "turned" all the firewood. Including the oak
 
<------- You get stopped by the police while running at midnight with a log someone put out with the trash for the next morning. The policeman thought I had a TV or something on my shoulder.

You fire up your wood fired pizza oven with wood shavings.

You head to the store for something small and come home hours later with a load of wood and never made it to the store.
 
I was lucky enough to be traveling for work last week in North Carolina. I got a kidney stone that brought me to my knees. That didn't stop me from trying to find out from the emergency room staff where I could get some local wood. They are used to people coming in to score narcotics and I am trying to score wood.

I struck out on the wood but I passed the stone the next day shortly after flying home.
 
You pick up wood off the side of the road that you don't need and will never use. So you can have it in your own dumpster for a few days, just in case your wrong.
 
When you have a pail full of 1/2 inch pieces you won't throw out because someday they'll get used for inlay or segmented turning.
 
You ruin your life by starting a forum to try and get more curly koa, and people taunt you for it. Even torture you with it. But you love the a$$holes anyway because they love the same wood you do. And they have curly koa. And you think maybe one day they will share. And you know damn well they won't. But you don't care because you are a wood addict. But you think maybe one day someone will at least sell you some really great curly koa. But they won't and you know damn well they won't but you don't care . . . . . .
