    Default Hello, Everyone!

    Hello, Fellow wood workers. I'm Doug and I live in Springville, UT. I'm trying to stert a small wood shop in a 1-1/2 car garage. I'd post a photo, but the attachments button doesn't seem to be working.
    Anyway, I'll turn 63 in October. I've been a custom cabinet and furniture maker most of my life, but I injured my back 12 years ago and I'm just now getting to where I can do some work on a very, very small scale.
    More posts to came as I get some projects and some shop built machinery finished.

    I would love to post some photos, but I guess it's reserved for members who have been here for a while.

    Welcome to the forum Doug. I don't think you are restricted in posting photos as a new member as I have seen some new members post photos on their first post. Have you tried the 3rd icon from the right in the group that appear above when composing a new post?

    It's a work in progress. So far I spend a lot of my time just getting machinery built or rearanging stuff so it works better.

    I spend more time setting up and re-arranging than I do actually work. I guess it's all part of the fun.

    Cheers

    Just a few more photos of the Delta 10" band saw. I'm not sure how old it is, but I'm guessing over 100 years.
