Hi all,

my name is Luca and I write you from the other side of the world, Italy. I'm not a pro woodworker, actually I'm a pilot flying for the italian national carrier.

I've been woodworking for some years now, and I also like drawing my plans using Google SketchUp. I'm quite confident with it and for this reason I decided to run a blog on it, in English, regularly writing posts that I think could be interesting for those who like preparing their own plans.

I don't like being invasive on forums, so if you like the idea and you agree I will keep you updated on my posts. I also have some free plans available that you can download from my site if you like.

I'd like to share my experience with you, not only on design and plans, but on woodworking in general.

Cheers, or ciao! (as we say here in Italy :U)

Luca

Hi Luca and welcome to the forum.

Don't be shy about posting information here, the more the better.

Why not put a link to your blog in your forum signature? Easiest way.

Thank you Snow, I waited for posting the link because I like being polite and ask when entering in someone else home.

This is it: SketchupWoodPlans (http://www.sketchupwoodplans.com)

Cheers,
