Construction, remodel, etc require a lot of different tools, etc. Lots of portable tools, etc. stuff adds up. I was there for awhile.. -
Hello! The summer season is starting soon and my orders are piling up. Tell me where you buy wood, beams, plywood, etc., so that delivery is in the United States. I found the site globy.com, very good prices. Has anyone ordered from this site? -
I started out many years ago. I had no tools or skill. Tried to make a simple box using a hand miter jig working for what seemed like days to get It just right. When it was done. It looked like a box someone would have made in kindergarten. But I was hooked. I bought a 100.00 dollar table saw and a small drill press. I lived in an apartment with my gf and sister her brother and mother. My table saw was actually our kitchen table had a piece of plywood on it when not in use and my drill press set on an end table. I can remember mother in law using the light on it to read books with. Many years later I’m not much better but my wife and I had a shop built on our property it’s 24x30 and I work part time as a diesel mechanic 3days a week thinking some day I can go full time as a woodworker but the truth is I’ll probably just stay as is I have to many other hobbies it just tie it down to one. -

I agree that maximizing the use of material feels better, and you did a good job with it. I'll point out that chairs are definitely NOT the right application for a lot of figured grain, at least not crotch figure. Avoiding such grain in mediocre cuts of lumber is often difficult. Straight grain with minimal run out keeps things strong and tight. Your QS oak selection is an excellent choice in that regard. -

A large portion of my tool kit is inherited, gifted, or purchased used. Consumables aside, I have far less than $5k invested in my shop, and that accrued over a couple of decades. I have, at times, offset the cost of my hobby by actually selling some of my product, but I don't suggest that as a means to really drive the hobby. Makes it seem too much like work.
