I sure hope my wife never looks in the very bottom of the deep freezer. ::)

Common phrases:
"what the heck is that smell? "
"Why is there a dead animal in my living room!!?"
"Your not doing that inside the house, you have a shop for a reason"
"Get that dead animal off my couch!"
"Where's my_____(<--Insert kitchen item/s)
"How long until you get _______ out of my freezer/frig."

My response: "I don't know"

I got me a mobile stove with two plates, nice one from the sixties, cause the house was dripping after steaming a stave for 90 minutes. Can do that stuff outside now, wich is good for my marriage. I need my wife to stay positive about my hobby, cause she is surely the only one who will listen to my constant drivel about some bent sticks with never ending patience and interest.  :-*
Really, it's mostly good to be married  ;)
Only thing that she really hates is socks full of sawdust.

Very funny post guys.  It's always amusing to think of how someone can be "jealous" of wood or how us guys stash animal parts around the garage and in the freezer.  I'm guilty as charged.  My wife is very understanding being from deep down in Oaxaca, Mexico.  I have gotten a few stern warnings from using her cooking pots.  I suppose guys all throughout history have been through this, and good women put up with it.

We have no garage either. I have one room that I have basically turned into an inside shop, and it is my haven.

EDIT: I should add that my wife is ok with it (so some degree) as she uses it for painting and ceramic work, which would be impossible anywhere else in the house due to our feline infestation.

A little 30 - 40 lbs short bow can be VERY effective in cleaning up that feline infestation issue for you if you use properly spined arrows and some razor sharp broad heads.   >:D  >:D  >:D    ::)  ;)

 Wife: How do you plead on the following charges?

 Boiling horn in pan until burnt?                                                        Husban: Uh,,,, really hard to say right now
 Taking up refrigerator freezer space with frozen sinew glue?                       Uh,,,,, there's only a few containers,,,     
 Leaving bows on kitchen table?                                                                     Uh,,, you mean today?
 Shredding sinew and sorting on coffee table                                                    Uh,,,I clean up the mess?
 Coming in for dinner from the shop smelling like fresh sturgeon?                    Uh ,,,Totally guilty >:D
 Making extreme mess of deer hide hair from working hides.                          The pressure washer did it!
 Filling cooler with fish skins while on vacation.                                               Didn't want to waist them?
 Bows hanging on drop lamps?                                                                       Just need to dry a little more!
 Four thousand piles of stupid sticks,,,,,                                                          Yes, but they are not all good staves
 Spending days after ice storm searching the area for downed trees,            Yes, being frugal
 Looking for staves while on date walk                                                            Guilty as charged
 Gathering goose feathers while walking sandy shores with wife.                    Not much different them collecting sea shells on the beach?
 Slamming on brakes to check dead snake.                                                     Sometimes they are still good?
