Whether you are measuring, cutting, drilling, shaping, sanding, or finishing, working wood is an art, requiring skills leaned over a lifetime. Woodworking skills are acquired from our successes as well as our failures, kind of like life itself. I’ll avoid categorizing my self as to skill level as a woodworker or a do-it-yourselfer.  My only purpose is to share what I’ve learned in working with wood and other things about life itself. You might find some valuable skills here, reflect upon similar experiences in your life, or maybe even laugh a little. Thanks for visiting and feel free to send your posts about working wood and other life events.
