Hi Greg,

Welcome!

You will be able to find loads of help with tool suggestions here! (And I may say, they are very good at helping you spend your hard earned dollar on quality ww'ing tools. ) The folks here are extremely helpful to especially us newbies! Just start my perusing some of the threads and you will quickly learn loads of tricks and technique. They are not only extremely knowledgeable but very courteous no matter what the question.

After your here for awhile you will begin to wonder where you have been for there is just so much talent right here in good old N.C..

Again, Glad to see you join and have fun!!!

Wayne

Welcome Greg, don't think you'll have any problem soliciting advice on tools from this bunch.

Welcome Greg from across Balsam in Haywood Co. Welcome to the group and you've come to a great place to learn. There's lots of talent hanging here, and everyone's willing to pass along what they can to you. We're pulling together a WNC woodworker group and planning on having meeting and get togethers. Feel free to join up and we'll keep you posted.
My Best
Randy

Re: Hello from Jackson County

Welcome to the site, Greg. Two things are a must -- 1st "no pics, it didn't happen", so go to Other Links on the main menu bar and request a Photo Gallery. 2nd - under the same Other Links, go to User Control Panel and them click on Group memberships at the lower left of the screen. Ask to join the Western NC Woodworking Club Interest Group and we'll give you info on our plans to have a club in the area.
