My name is Zach Dow. I am 22 years old and i am semi-new to the woodworking scene. i joined this site to help me learn more and gain advice and mabey some ideas for some projects. I am from Monroe, NC where for now i live with my parents untill i leave for school in june. i would like to get some projects under my belt before leaving because i will not have the resources or time while i am at school.
well i guess i will go now and start working!

Welcome Zach!
We are happy you joined us. What type of woodworking are you interested in? Is it possible that the school you plan to attend has a woodworking program?

Welcome. This site is kinda like school at times, too. You will learn a wealth of knowledge here. Good to have you. What kinda stuff do you do?

thanks! i dont do a whole lot of stuff so far. i am making a jewlery box. right now i want to keep it simple and small. but in the future i would like to do furniture and larger items.

well i am more interested in small projects right now, jewlery boxes, cutting boards, things like that. i would like to go bigger in the future when i have my own shop. all i have right now is an old band saw, a workbench(that i built) and some hand tools and hand power tools.

That sounds like a good start. Match the projects to the equipment and the skills you have and you'll do just fine; especially with this bunch behind you:lol: :lol:
