Residency requirements

North Carolina Woodworker is aimed primarily at Woodworkers in North Carolina. We will accept automatically users from NC, VA, TN, SC.

All others registrant's accounts will be put into Moderation, once they have verified their email address. Most of these registrants will be declined by our staff. This has nothing to do with you personally.. It has to do with our desire to maintain the local nature of our discussions, functions, etc. However, we do accept non-residents in a few special cases.

  • People who, in the staff's judgment, offer special skills that are not represented in depth with our current membership.
  • People who have a special interest in woodworking in North Carolina and/or work in the state.
  • People who represent manufacturers and/or retail vendors of woodworking tools.
  • Other exceptions may be made as deemed appropriate by the staff of www.ncwoodworker.net

However, registrants that do not meet the automatic registration requirement , MUST provide information as to why they should be considered for non resident membership. This is done by filling in the "Non Resident Join Request" field of the registration application. Remember that a non resident registration is placed into moderation. When the staff reviews these accounts, their attention is placed on the "Non Resident Join Request" field. If it is NOT filled in, the registration will automatically be declined.

Hey all, I ran into a deal today that I couldn't pass up.
With some guidance and education from our well known Travis.
I voyaged up to Rocky Mount with my van and trailer, and came back with the axles groaning from th weight of all the cast iron.

Check this out"



I really didn't know about this guy til I got up there, but the price was really right.

Now this is what I really went up there for
a 20" 5 HP grizzly planer.





If you look close it still has cosmoline on it, hehehe. This model normally only comes with a 3HP motor, but for some reason the previous owner (may God rest his soul) custom ordered it with a 5 HP motor.

Man I was one happy camper all the way home.
Til it was time to off load ughhhhhhhh.

Man, you suck! You can really blast through a stack of boards with that kind of equipment. Forget trash can separator, you'll need a good cyclone to keep up with those bad boys.





I'd say that was a productive trip
