I am relatively new to this – I have a few easy projects under my belt. I’ll post some pics eventually.
Mostly I make unusable scraps of out-of-square, tear-out infested, surface-gouged items whose sole purpose is to be thrown against the workshop wall, but of course, I love it!
Specifically, I live in NJ now, am originally from NYC and lived in Boston for a few years.
I am a PC support technician, which means I was a professional musician for about 10 years before that.
I look forward to getting to know you all.

We'll never remember it down the road, especially if you have any of the 'where's the best place to buy....?' questions. Lots of good information to be found and occasionally a laugh or two as well.
