hello from Michigan

I totally missed this section before. I have been working with wood of and on since I was a kid. Watching my dad go nuts with his mark 3 all in one machine. I started with toys about 4 years ago. Got tired of wasting money on toys that didnt last. I made a semi tractor and trailer plan and know what. with the exception of a couple of axles that had to be repaired the kids still have em. Havent stopped since.

I love working with cherry, even though my tools dont. Ill get some pics up as soon as I can.
