Ha! Well, I find that kind of cool, actually.  If he loves carpentry, why not? He’s 36 years old, has made a ton of money in the NHL over 16 years. Why not try something else? smile

Seriously, if he’s good at it, there is a lot of demand for fine woodworking.  High-quality cabinetry is very difficult and extremely pricey.
