Hi guys,
Brand new to this forum... I'm so impressed with the level of knowledge and the nice/courteous vibe here. I hope I can become a contributor as I learn more.
Background:
I'm drawn to woodworking.. I work a desk job, but really enjoy working with my hands more. Unfortunately, I haven't had a lick of training ever. None. Also, I didn't have a place to work. And I didn't have any idea how to build anything.
Solution:
Decided to save my barn to create a place to work. That took about a year.
Signed up for a week long woodworking course from a local master woodworker (that's coming in April).
After the course, when I have a better feel for what to look for, I will begin to accumulate tools to fill up my shop.
And in the meantime, I'm soaking up knowledge from folks like yourselves.
Here's the barn, I hope you like it (edit: Please note that the website shows you a rough blue print.. the area titled "Car parking" is actually where all the woodworking equipment will be.. the area titled "workshop" is more of a household/general purposes workshop):
