Welcome! / Forums / General Woodworking Discussions / Greetings and Introduction
Hello, everyone!
My name is Curtis. I am a husband of 15 years and father of 5 boys under 10. We are living in Pittsburgh, PA.
I am beginning to work wood once again. The first time I tried was over 10 years ago, when I lost a fingertip to a tablesaw. Since that time, I have sworn off machining wood. I now want to work wood, not machine it. When I found Mr. Sellers on YouTube, I was at once awed, challenged, and encouraged to give it another go.
Over the past year, I have been collecting tools from eBay. I believe I am now ready to begin with the workbench. Below are some pics of where I am currently.
Thank you, Mr Sellers, for everything you are doing! I am excited to learn from you and to teach these skills to my boys.
Welcome, Curtis. I hope you like it here. We’ve all learned so much from these forums and from Paul’s blogs and videos and I’m confident you will, too. Building projects properly and without power tools gives such a feeling of satisfaction.
Good luck on the bench. I’m finally getting ready to build mine, too.
Welcome! I am originally from Pittsburgh myself. Moved to Seattle close to 10 years ago. Goodluck on the bench.
