Hmmm...I have been looking at this and other websites for a few weeks now, wondering if I should join. Having the name "Lumberjocks" worried me a little, since I am a woman but I have been reading the blogs and you all seem like a friendly bunch so thought I would give it a try. I am an accountant by day and a novice woodworker by night and weekend. I have made a few things, some I am proud of, some not. I am always aspiring to challenge myself. I am a new grandmother to the best grandson in the entire universe so my latest projects will be centered around making him a very special 1st birthday present. I am hoping to make a rocking horse but since I have to fly to see him, I may not be able to take it with me.
Everything I know about woodworking came from books. I took a couple of day classes, just to learn how to use tools, but I have always loved making things and I love the smell of wood and the feeling of accomplishment when I am proud of myself. So, this being the first time I have ever joined anything...except girl scouts when I was a kid...I'm open to whatever may come of it.

Welcome, I did exactly what you are wanting to do except that I am lucky enough to be within driving distance, 150 miles, of my granddaughter. I gave her the horse for her fist birthday and she is going on two now.
Enjoy,

Al
