I never intended to have woodworking for a hobby. I grew up watching my father renovate each house we moved into, and when I bought my first house two years ago, I bought tools and learnt how to use them out of necessity rather than desire. As each new renovation required a new tool and a new set of skills I began to learn more than just framing and electrical. Finish work required the purchase of a table saw...and in the process of learning to use it, I began to develop a desire to do more than just rough carpentry... thus I start my journey into woodworking.

Welcome to Lumber Jocks! This is a great place to get – or give – advice about woodworking on the forums and the project posts are a wonderful source of new ideas. I look forward to seeing your projects and posts.

To get the most feedback on your projects, it’s best to only post 1 or 2 at a time. This way you will get feedback over several days and from a wide variety of members.

Please enjoy your membership.

Hi there,
Welcome to LumberJocks… I joined the site myself a few months ago and will give you fair warning, this site is VERY ADDICTIVE, VERY EDUCATIONAL, and VERY FUN…. so sit back, enjoy the ride and learn from the other LJ’s as they are a group of extremely talented people that are also very friendly…

Enjoy your time here on LJ and pass the word to any of your woodworking buddies about us…

Wisty

Welcome to Lumberjocks. The projects are an inspiration, the information is priceless and the people are supportive. The only problem is, the site can get addictive.

God Bless
