I've had an on and off interest in woodworking for a long time but did not have the time, space, or money until the past 5 years or so. Trying to be perfect was also a problem. Now I just do what I can do and I'm really starting to enjoy it. I have a one car garage shop and everything is on wheels. My tools are not high end but suitable for my skill level right now.

Antique Desk
This desk belonged to my great grandmother. The wooden board laying on the writing area does not belong to it. But the center board below it pulls out to make a writing surface. The style looks old but it has gotten me to thinking about making ...

Maple Table
Today I picked up some curly maple for a small end table I want to make. Lots to think about and I will have to be on my toes as far as gluing the top up and attaching the small stretchers to the legs. Film at 11.

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…
