And after 45 years in the...

    Aches, pains and pallet wood, oh my! Following its recent successful creation, I opted to give Franken-Rack free rein to terrorize the domain. It was my hope that it would bring home the finest lumber in all the land. Instead, it brought me pallet and crate wood. Several times I have berated...

    Keeping track of my wounds: 13 and counting... I decided at the very start of my woodworking adventures to keep close track of any injuries I managed to incur, in part out of curiosity-knowing that it's a hobby notorious for its danger, at least in comparison to most other hobbies-and in part...
