[quote quote=121865]I’m not sure of the technicalities behind something like this or if it’s even possible but recently I’ve been thinking about doing something online like a website or blog, not that I have anything to offer but it would be more like a journal as you say. I havent the faintest idea about how this is done so I’m still researching how to do it.[/quote]
That’s a good idea. I like the idea of recording your woodworking journey as you mature in the craft. It shouldn’t be difficult to open a blog. You can create a free blog in a matter of minutes and start blogging away. There are a bunch of websites that offer a free blog platform, like http://www.blogger.com – that’s google’s platform I think.
But my point was that forum members could share their journey directly on this website. If they chose to, of course. I feel there should be a subforum titled, for instance “Member Journals”. Even that subforum can be divided to more categories, but I’ll leave that to the discretion of Mr. Sellers. I feel this would build the forum community and better connect the members of this board.
Nevertheless, I’ll start a thread for my sake and title it, I don’t know, maybe “WWDummy’s woodworking journey”. I’ll post what I have done (which is not much at all – a dining and coffee table, front door, entertainment center), pics of my projects, what I plan to do in the future, share comments with other members, comment on my tools, or the size of my waistline, whatever I want. I’ll probably start somewhere near the springtime, since I work outdoors and the winter time is slow progress for me, for obvious reasons.
