Hello,
I am an artist by nature, as i assume most on here are in some way. I primarily like to paint. I am "self-taught" and have discovered the need to expand my skills in other areas to save money.
I would classify myself as the "Jack of all trades" because I have explored art in many forms such as: playing over 6 different musical instruments, gourmet chef (in my own home), professional landscaper, poet, etc. I have a bachelors degree in Marketing.
I ventured into woodworking in early 2010 when I made a fraternity shield. I have also found that building my own canvases, easels, and frames also saves money and is enjoyable. I have since purchased a home and will be building built-in bookcases and closet storage, and probaly finishing my basement.
I recently purchased a used Jet JSTS 10 table saw for my small area of the Man Cave that I have sectioned off as my woodshop/art studio. I also own a SKill router, corded drill, and circular saw, Dremel Tro and a smaller Dremel finishing tool. Dewalt cordless drill and recipracating saw, RYObi Miter was with stand, PC jigsaw, and CH brad nailer and compressor.
I look forward to reading posts and learning tidbits as I progress along.
Thanks,
-- Jerome, Marietta, GA
