1099 posts in 3571 days Location: Marysville, MI I've been banging around wood since I was a kid. Started with just scraps and any nails I could get and straighten out. I'm now a remodeling contractor with 34 years experience under my tool belt. Lately, a lot of my projects include some type of custom this or reproduction of that. Then I get to have some fun in the shop. I'm a total tool nut, so usually I can fabricate whatever the client needs. This has kept me going, being able to do what most contractors/carpenters are unable to do.

Gary – glad you joined LJ. This is a great site – I’m sure you’ll enjoy everything. Can’t wait to see your projects.
-- I've never seen a tree that I wouldn't like to repurpose into a project. I love the smell of wood in the morning - it smells like victory.

Welcome to Lumberjocks. The projects are an inspiration, the information is priceless and the people are supportive. The only problem is, the site can get addictive.
God Bless

Hi there,
Welcome to LumberJocks… I joined the site myself almost a year ago and will give you fair warning, this site is VERY ADDICTIVE, VERY EDUCATIONAL, and VERY FUN…. so sit back, enjoy the ride and learn from the other LJ’s as they are a group of extremely talented people that are also very friendly…
Enjoy your time here on LJ and pass the word to any of your woodworking buddies about us…

Gary , your projects look great ! l happen to be a tool addict myself and my wife says the same thing to me , do you really need that. My last couple of tools were a dewalt track saw to straighten the hooks in my black walnut stock and a dowel maker so l could make my own plugs for my Kreg pocket holes. And I’m with you a 110% Lumberjocks.com ROCKS with information and people who share there woodworking talents.

Gary your work is totally pro bro! I totally identify with your background since I got my start in remodeling and that is where I honed my skills, design sense, and had an opportunity to sell my ideas.
I love your philosophy and work!
But you do have about twice as many years in as I do;)

Were you one at the Art in the Park in Marysville this past summer?
Have your say...
