I like to do everything.
No, really, everything.
I've been hoping to be an artist when I grow up and am still working on it. I currently have as my medium WOOD.
I'm also an ex photographer (professional), Ex-techno-geek, industrial control panel builder, amateur plumber, gardner, home maintenance tech, and other things I can't remember. (Give me a break, I'm OLD)
Another medium I work in these days is digital art, photos, drawings, animations and videos.
See, I told you, I like to do everything.
Really.

Welcome to Lumber Jocks! Glad you found the forums already. The forums are a great place to get woodworking advice and to give out some wisdom as well. I am always getting new ideas from the project posts and I also find the videos instructive. I hope you find the site as useful as I do.

God Bless
