Hello,
This is my first post and I wish to introduce myself and ask a question.
I have been a furniture designer, architect and maker for about 35 years. I recently designed and built my own house which was a fantastic experience and outlet for my collected skills and knowledge.
I have been visiting this forum from time to time looking for specific information.
Anyway I wish to make a post about a Japanese style timber bath I made for my house and was wondering if anyone can direct me to the best place to make a post about it.
When researching my timber bath on amongst other places here, I didn't find much information so feel if I post something it may help other people who are also wishing to make a timber bath.
So please let me know your thoughts on where is the best place is to make the post.
Thanks
Tony

As you have posted in this sub-forum the best reply would normally be welcome to the forum. Having been part of the forum for a little while now it might be muted a little. :wink:

You might want to post your thoughts concerning the bath on the General sub-forum. http://www.woodworkforums.com/f11

Hello Tony
welcome to the forum. I just opened a new window in Youtube & typed "Wooden bathtub" , I got 81900 results so I typed in "Traditional Japanese Wooden Bathtub", This got me 1390 results, a most definitely easier number to manage.
Happy Soaking!
