    Default Long time listener, first time caller

    Hi, my name is Lou.

    I joined the forum back in 2014 but evidently didn't introduce myself—there wouldn't have been much to say, at any rate!

    I have recently moved into my first place that has any outside space (and there really ain't much of it!) so I have finally started to bring my long-planned big woodworking dreams closer to reality by doing things like requesting (and receiving) a drill for my last birthday. Yay!

    My woodworking accomplishments so far include: 1) making one ugly box ...aaaaand that is the end of the list.

    Happy to finally be introducing myself, looking forward to sharing photos of the next thing I make, hopefully a little more exciting than a box, or at the very least hopefully a less ugly box than the last one

    Welcome Lou! There's lots you can do outside, on a driveway, on a board sitting on two saw-horses, etc. What sort of things do you want to be doing? I'm barely past the ugly-box stage myself.
