Hi all,
Unfortunately I missed out on any woodworking mentorship when growing up, althought I've always tried to build things with varying levels of success. I bought my first house a couple of years ago, and have since successfully built a couple of pergolas and other things - all over researched and WAY over engineereed (can never be too safe eh!).
I've found this site to be a great resource and a source of the mentorship and skills transfer that just doesn't seem to get passed down any more. Needless to say, I try to involve my kids in my projects as much as I can.
Cheers!
Mike
