Hi all

I'm new in here and having almost completed my backyard project of designing and building a 1.8mx3m timber frame greenhouse while stuck at home for the last couple of months, I'm quickly becoming obsessed with all things woodworking.

I'm looking at doing a few more projects and a few DIY jobs around the house that the kids can join me with as they like to build things too.

No doubt I'll end up with a lot more questions as I get into this further.

Regards
Hamish

Welcome Hamish. Once you start on the wood projects they seem to get the juices flowing and you want more and more if that is your passion. Some head down the DIY path and others want to specialise in other skills like cabinetary, turning, boxmaking etc. As long as you enjoy what you are doing, it doesn't matter which way you go.

Welcome.
You are now on a very slippery slope, as you get more confident and proficient, then the 'need this tool's syndrome' attacks you 'so I can do this next project', its a never ending quest and having your children involved will benefit in more ways than you ever imagined.
