I have always been interested in woodworking and have played with it for many years, mostly what I would classify as rough projects. Those being things such as play forts, fences, some trim work, and such in which joinery isn't that critical. Last year I got a Kreg pocket hole kit and built a free standing cabinet for my Mom which I guess was my first real piece of furniture.
This year I built a bathroom vanity and am now engaged in building an oak entertainment center in the mission style of my design. I am writing a blog on this sight discussing it's construction. I am self taught and this entertainment center has numerous first in, a true learning experience!

No, I haven’t fallen off the planet and yes I have been working on the EC but at a more relaxed tempo. In my last blog entry things were not going well and I decided that I was burned out and trying too hard so I backed up and decided to proceed a...

I have been doing other things of late to enable more work on the EC such as building a box for the new PC dovetail jig per Shopnotes, and other such diversions. I decided however that it was time to get back after the EC and having overcome, I th...
