Welcome to Woodworker++

This blog is intended to be a journal of my progress as a woodworker. Grab a drink, maybe some popcorn, sit back and enjoy a glimpse into my woodworking projects, both failed and successful. Why should you care what I do, or what I have to say? You shouldn't, but just maybe I can keep you from making the same mistakes that I had to learn the hard way.

Should get the dye today.

FedEx says the dye is on the truck for delivery today. No cabinet work this weekend, but I did start my next project. I'm going to use some maple I had left over from my workbench to build a small tack box for wifey. I cut up the back panel Saturday morning using the old Miller Falls miter saw I got from my grandfather. Wow, that 90 degree cut was perfect. It was a heck of a lot better than the cut I could do on my table saw. I hope I'm not becoming a true galoot.

I also cleaned up my wood pile a little. I can pretty much walk all around the tools in the garage now, which is not only nice but safe.
