Caption This Photo and Win a CD

Years ago we had a Caption the Cartoon contest in every issue of the magazine. Bob Rech would draw a cartoon, and readers would send in postcards suggesting captions. It was my job to sort the hundreds of postcards ("funny ha-ha," "funny strange" and "deeply troubled").

After several years we discontinued to contest to make space for other columns in Popular Woodworking, but I do miss the contest.

So here's one for old time's sake. Above is a great photo of turner Dave Lancaster in his shop after a long session at the lathe. Write a caption for this photo before midnight April 5 and leave it in the comments below. The best caption will win a copy of our new "The Best of Shops & Workbenches" CD, which has 62 of our favorite articles on building benches, setting up your shop and filling it with the jigs you need. (You can see a slideshow of the contents of our $15 CD here.)

"Hello 911, I'm calling to report my family has gone missing... Last place I saw them was in my shop this morning"

Dave calls TA (Turners Anonymous) to report that he's had a bit of setback.

"Hey man, I'm telling you... making shaving angels is a delight"

"Ok, I'm ready... send over the donkeys" (I'm not sure what this means)
