Interesting childhood fact about Abraham Lincoln!
According to myth, Nolin River was reportedly named when a bracket of woodsmen camped on a hummock near the river and a member of the hunting party, Benjamin Lynn, became astray. The narrative continues as the rest of the gatherers returned to the hummock where someone said "Here is the knoll, but no Lynn!" The lost huntsman was later found alive, spry in appearance, and well encamped at nearby Lynn Camp Creek. The United States Board on Geographic Names settled on "Nolin River" as the stream's name in 1933. Another interesting fact is, as a child, Abraham Lincoln swam there!🌲🏇🏕🏹

I want to hang out here at Lake Allatoona!!
One of our customers told us about a niche she wanted to fill with one of our lake maps. She said her husband had all the tools needed to modify the shape to make it fit. Curious, we asked for pictures of where it was going...then we asked her for a template. She was awesome and sent us a paper template in the mail. This is the end result. They love it and we're happy they let us share these pics of their little piece of paradise.

Wood Cowboy Hats
Meet the maker! Brian Butler
Brian enjoys producing most of the usual woodworking products such as: bowls, vases, urns, walking sticks but it is his wood cowboy hats that set him apart from other woodworkers.
Brian starts with a 60 to 70 pound hunk of wet wood. He likes to use Ambrosia maple, walnut, chestnut, birch and beech. He proceeds to turn the hunk of wood into a bowl shape. After many hours of turning, he stops when it is only 1/8 inch thick. Over the next four to five days he will shape the hat as the wood drys. Once complete the hat will weigh less than a pound!
