                                                                          When  asked  this  question,  sophomore  Tom  O'Grady
                                                                      said,  "I've  been  around  woodworking  for  about  seven

                                                                          Freshman Tom  Sandow said the class seemed like a lot

                                                                      all  the  classes  you  go  to."
