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.

Re: Fire at Scott's Shop
Absolutely horrible. I hope your current pain isn't compounded by a hassle from your insurance company. I hate to think how vulnerable we all are from all of those unattended electrical devices. Fans, chargers, sump pumps, power supplies for electronics, etc.- any of them could overheat and start fires.

I'm glad nobody was hurt.

That is tragic Scott, I do hope you can get it sorted with the Ins Co. I might go home and take a few pics of my stuff - just in case...

Steve - I really like that idea - A big gang of guys can do a lot of work in a short amount of time and besides it's right in line with the spirit of site and membership community.

Thanks

Re: Fire at Scott's Shop
Scott
I can't begin to imagine what that must feel like. I know I would be totally devastated. I am so sorry. Since I am retired, I would offer to come down from Mayberry and help in any way I could, but I just had knee surgery last week and will be out of commission for another 4 wks. Despite that, I will be glad to help in any way I can.
Again know that you are in our prayers and thoughts.
Jim in Mayberry

Wow...the pics are too much. I'm glad nobody was hurt.

I hope you reach a fair settlement with the insurance company and are able to find a way to turn a bad event into an opportunity for improvement.

Re: Fire at Scott's Shop
Scott,
Sorry to hear of your loss. I came close to loosing my shop and house to fire from something I did in the shop a few years back. I live in fear of leaving an oily rag or something else causing a fire. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Rob

Re: Fire at Scott's Shop
Scott, I am also sorry to hear about the fire and the loss of your shop. If there is anything I can do, you got it. I guess none of us think about the items it our shop that can cause a fire. This is a reminder to take pictures just in case. Best of luck to you in the coming weeks. Hope all goes smoothly.
