Hello from Durham

[jimb97239]

Hi all,
I'm Jim, I joined the thread recently.
I've piddled around in woodworking of various sorts for > 30 yrs, but have rarely had much of a formal shop, so I've mostly done more 'course' work like building and rough work. Hauling tools out of a shed and setting up on the lawn then putting stuff back away is no fun plus impractical for 'quality' tools and setup.
Thanks in advance for sharing your comments and wisdom as I try to improve my woodworking journey.
Jimb

Welcome Jim. I struggled without a shop for a few years. I started keeping tools in the hall closet and working on the kitchen table. It didn’t take long til my wife was demanding that I build a shop. Good luck on your woodworking journey.

Well depending on where you are in Durham, you can come to my shop if its easier for you than setting up. I live in northern Durham near Riverside HS. Send pm if interested.

That is an offer I would take if given and closer. Far better than any makerspace.

thanks dan, that looks like a nice shop. I'm in south Durham, so you're still a bit of a hike.
