I handcarved this phrase into the shelf of my tool cabinet in the hopes that one day, some 22nd century woodworker will find my cabinet at a dusty flea market and, thinking that there is some meaningful phrase chiseled into it, will take his new-found treasure home to find out what the puzzling, yet undoubtedly profound message says. After some research, he will discover that it's Latin for: How did you get your hair to do that?

Brilliant!
It sounds as if your inner child is awaiting to be released. It is okay, you can release her now.
LOL! That could be dangerous, Wyld.
In 200 years... OK, about 1,000 years, someone will be trying to make sense of the relationship(s) between hair and woodworking.
I think I will go with "nemus trucido" on my next tool box.
Great Blog! I just stumbled on to it last week, and have been catching up.

Al, I hadn't thought of that, but that's even MORE fun to think about!
Corey, is that Latin for "massacre a sacred grove"? As in "one who butchers trees"? That's awesome!
Mattias, thanks for letting me know how you found my blog. I owe Marc a big thank you for sending so many people over here. : )
Yes, "Tree Butcher" thanks to google, and online translators, now we can all skip the years of boring "amo amas, amat".... I took in high School, which mostly leaked out.
