Website:

I am 28 and I live in Lafayette, Indiana. For a paycheck, I work as an electrician and am an active member of the IBEW. At any given time I have about 5-10 projects in the works. Occasionally, I actually finish one. I've only been doing woodworking for about a year, but i really enjoy it. I think in my case, it's genetic. I come from a line of german-american carpenters(and farmers). My family used to own a cabinet shop in my hometown in the 1920's. I thought that was inspiring when I recently found out about it. I just build things for family and friends as a hobby. I can't even imagine having the skill level to make a living with woodworking. I have alot of respect for the lucky ones that can.

Hi Bent,

Let me welcome you to LJs. I hope that you will find this to be an interesting and rewarding aspect of your woodworking journey.

-- With God's help all things are possible- even woodworking. Woodworking is not just a hobby, it is an (expletive deleted) expensive hobby.

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
