Thanks guys! I posted a few photos in the projects section of the bookcase I just finished.

Welcome to Lumberjocks! Pull up a chair and spend some quality time talking about woodworking, instead of woodworking <vbg>

Welcome Joel,

I hope you find this site as informative and enjoyable as I have. A lot of great folks talking about what we love to do.

I like the train icon you’ve got.

Can’t believe I forgot!

Mining, logging, and railroad history are also hobbies of mine, railroads especially. I suppose that makes my railroad carrier much easier. I started a webpage 10 years ago about the history of the rail line that I currently work on. Some really old photos on it. The main page is here: http://spcascades.railfan.net

Also, there is a section on that webpage devoted to the local logging in the Westfir, Oregon area with a lot of mill shots from back in the day courtesy of the retired VP of the mill.

That section is here: http://spcascades.railfan.net/westernLumberCo.html

Enjoy!
