    Just a quick "hi"

    Good evening everybody,
    I am currently from Mount Airy, NC and while I dearly love working with wood, my job and other projects seem to keep me from it more than I would like.
    I dont have a big enough shop or all of the tools I would like to have (but I am not sure that ever happens), so I just try to make do with what I do have. I am looking forward to learning lots from you good folks!

    Best Regards,

    Re: Just a quick "hi"

    Welcome to the site. As Dennis said, ask lot's of questions, and read as many of the post as you can. And if you get a chance, post some pics of your shop or your projects.

    Bill
    I'll gladly tell you how I do something. Just please don't confuse that with the right way to do it, and almost certainly not the only way.

    Re: Just a quick "hi"

    I do have a couple of projects that are probably presentable. Where do you suggest I post photos at? I dont see a dedicated topic heading for project photos or something similar. or just embed them in a post in general woodworking?

    Sorry, I just dont know the protocols yet.

    Re: Just a quick "hi"

    Welcome to the woodpile! I am a short drive south down 601, so if you need help (I save my bad ideas for myself), just ask.
    The thing that holds up all my woodworking is simply getting started.

    Re: Just a quick "hi"

    LOL!
    @LeftyTom - I sometimes shoot field and hunter archery course at a friends house in Yadkinville, so I kind of wander around a bit. If I find myself stuck, I will shoot you guys a call for help.

    Conversely, If there is anything I can do for you folks, please let me know. I am always wiling to help if I can.

    [edit] I tried to create a member gallery album. Added one photo so far. Will try to add a couple more in a day or so.
