retired & married. ie working harder that ever.more of a wantabee than a crafts man. took several woodworking classes in high scool, back when the only glue was in a hot pot. most projects since have been interior and exterior renovation, but am making slow progress toward something worth showing...someday.
OK this might be considered a woodworking project, it certainly was work(see project)

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

RTB, thanks for the warm welcome. Your profile still shows you in NY but I guess you are back in KY now. I love the part of the state you’re from. I used to go camping down in the Daniel Boone National Forest, Red River Gorge and Natural Bridge area, plus I made a lot of trips over along I-64 when I was stationed at Fort Bragg and I was heading home to the Northern Kentucky area. I know what you mean about the winters here since it was about 2 degrees here this morning and I’ve nearly run out of places to pile the snow. I added you to my buddy list on here, I hope you don’t mind. Actually, you are the only one on my buddy list so far.
