Hello everyone,
My name is Billy and as all of you have been, I have fell in love with woodworking every since my first project (retirement chest for a good friend of mine, and a good sailor). I have been woodworking now for about a year and unfortunately have no formal training. I do how ever read everything I can get my hands on and pratice with every scrap piece of wood I keep. My experience is growing everyday and I learn from every mistake, and especially from fellow woodworkers here on LJ's.
My real job as my wife says is that I am in the Navy and have been in for 19 years. I have no intentions of retiring despite my wifes hard hand. I am so happy to find this website and envy the quality of craftmanship that is displayed.
I hope to get to know each and everyone one of you.
Billy

Hey Chief,
Looks like some “fish” over your left pocket in the photo. I was a pig boat sailor on USS Odax (SS484), ‘68-’72. We’ve always got room for one more bubblehead. Don’t get too settled-in, though. You’ve got the next watch!
Welcome from an old ET!

Welcome aboard there sailor! Tis a good site that you have found, I’ve sure enjoyed the straight and narrow line of woodworking and no deviation into off the wall subjects. Might try as a starter in making “Boats”, Ha!
Semper Fi for sure and thanks for your service.
