In a past life I was a Quality and Manufacturing Processes Technician. Not being content with living in a tiny office I moved toward self employment and now have 2 businesses. I do a lot of subcontract and handyman work for Commercial and Residential customers. I spend more than half my time in the shop, for both work and personal projects. The second business is a bakery I have started recently with my wife... I enjoy the challenges of both occupations, they are more related than you would think. Lots of lay out and design go into some of the cakes we do, similar to what goes into a woodworking project.
Retired from the U.S. Army Infantry in 2008. Got to see the world, however, in some cases I could have passed on that experience. Decided it just wasn't fun anymore after some of the things I'd seen and it is a young man's game. I've been woodworking since I was a child and apparently my military experience and love of woodworking were a perfect fit to be a Government woodworker on an Army post. Basically, I get paid to do what I love.
I'm a CPA and VP of Tax for a multinational higher education company. We own universities around the world. I enjoy woodworking to get away from the number crunching and paper pushing.
Full time Family Physician, Geocacher, and Scoutmaster. I woodwork on the occasional weekend, when I have the time.

Own my own business building custom, carbide tipped tools since 1981. Do a lot of failure analysis on saw blades, router bits, etc. Couple patents on using advanced materials for cutting tools. Starting to sell woodworking tools online. .
Now run the business all day and build the web site at night. A little embarrassed because my woodworking isn’t as pretty as what I see here. I do some volunteer, handyman style woodworking and that is much appreciated if it is just good and solid.

I work in IT as a senior system adminstrator. Been in the field for 15 years now. This is my second career, first one was a mechanic. This is a lot cleaner. Been woodworking since I was a kid, started when my dad gave me a pocket knife when I was a cub scout. I started carving faces and things into just about any stick I could find. Went on to wood shop in Jr. High and High school. Built lots of skateboards, key hooks, pencil boxes and other similar small projects. Didn't do much for lack of tools from high school until age 39 when I started building my shop... What projects I did in the interim time kept my interest up, and Norm Abram certainly didn't help. My wonderful bride urged me on to pursue a shop, and woodworking, so I did...
I'm an architect working out of my house for myself. Getting layed off 2 years ago was the best thing that could have happened to me.
