bleedinblue Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 I nearly missed this, I didn't think there was an introductory section. I'm Frank, a 30-something father to be (SOON) who has been messing around with woodworking for a few years now. I needed a night stand for a spare bedroom and had a compound miter saw, so I searched out some plans and found Ana-White.com...I built that and enjoyed it, so built a couple other mediocre pieces using that same mediocre miter saw and a Kreg jig. Then I bought a DeWalt DW745 table saw when installing laminate flooring two years ago and caught the bug real hard. I invaded a good sized portion of our unfinished basement, bought a real table saw and a bunch of other tools that I barely knew how to use and I've been learning as I go. I've been a true student of Youtube, thanks to Marc, Ramsey, Bates and similar pages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric. Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 Welcome Frank. Next time you have a free Saturday, drive up to St. Peters and see me at U-Pick Hardwoods. I'm there almost every weekend. We can shoot the breeze while you go broke. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
