Welcome George. You have found the right place for woodworking. A great group of people willing to help. Looking forward to see your projects and comments. Work safe in the shop and don’t forget to use pushsticks.

Thanks for the warm welcome.

I have found quite a few nice ideas on this forum. At this stage I am still observing, but will ad some posts later on about my projects. I want to add a few modifications to my table saw (which was made by my wife’s grandfather). When I get started on that I will ad some posts in that respect.
