Most importantly, I am a mom and grandma! I started woodworking about 4 years ago- with a cheap tablesaw, and few other tools. Now I have a decent tablesaw, and many tools! My first nice project was a cradle for my brother, then one for my kids. I moved onto making kitchen cupboards, mainly to save money. That's when I had to buy more tools (Darn!) I am hooked. My skill level has increased, by trial and error, but I am still a beginner! I have learned mainly by reading, reading, reading. Now that I'm a grandma, I'd like to start making children's furniture and outside play equipment. I am very glad I found this site!

Hello Colleen,
Welcome to LJs. I am sure that you will find this to be an exciting and rewarding part of your woodworking experience.

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
