158 posts in 1770 days Location: Seattle, WA. I was turned onto this site from DamnHippie. I've lived my life in Washington state. While I enjoyed taking Woodshop in Jr. High, I always lacked the space/time/resources to dedicate to woodworking after graduation. It took a backseat to my musical pursuits, and a career in Computer engineering. I got back into woodworking as an excuse to increase my guitar collection by making a few custom instruments to add to my current herd. I found a huge chunk of Purple heart the size of a door, and carefully planned out several instruments from this piece. I had forgotten how engrossing woodworking is. Like music in many regards, I find myself getting lost in the details of working on a project to be completely relaxing. I enjoy learning new skills, and have been acquiring hand tools to give myself a foundation in the basics. Now, I'm looking forward to delving into inlay work as well as a daunting list of projects that should keep me busy for years. My avatar is my old yellow lab Abby. -- When my wife ask's what I have to show for my wood working hobby, I just show her the splinters. Latest Activity | view all »Latest Blog Entries | view all 6 »

Thanks everyone.
I’m sure I’ll find this an invaluable resource for information, and insights into whatever I try to tackle next!
(*Translation: I’m looking forward to asking a lot of newbie questions, and hopefully find someone to blame for any design flaws that I make.)
