There is no disputing he knows a lot about woodworking and design. I have enjoyed our conversations and time spent in the shop.

    I am 30 years old and have been woodworking for approximately 4 1/2 years. I spent the first few years refining my skills by making several shop cabinets and some furniture for my home.

    I look forward to sharing ideas and shop stories with the group and of course . . . learning from the group's collective experience.

    Adan,

    <b>WELCOME</b> to SMC..!!!! Jump on in and share what you know and learn all you can. All of SMC is here to help each other do better and reduce the overall learning curve of woodworking.
    Thanks & Happy Wood Chips,

    I can't believe there are only 5 of us in the 20-30 bracket.

    As some have said I am just a young short punk who should be seen and not heard. Will be 28 in April.

    To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; wheter by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easeir because you have lived. This is the meaning of success.

    32 in March. Not that old, but sometimes it feels that way. Too much bodily abuse from sports when I was younger...

    Noah, you are a young punk, but I enjoy your posts, so keep it up.

    I am sad to say I am 42, 43 in March the same day as Jim Becker.

    As George Burns used to say "I wish I was 18 again!" I would fix some mistakes, and skip the useless M.S. in Forestry.

    Of course, it is better to be old than dead.

    Next Monday, I'll turn 33. Maybe there'll be a new tool around to make me feel better.....
