Hello from Raeford

[happyinsawdust]

Hello everyone,

I've been browsing these wonderful forums, but have not joined or posted until today. I am located in Raeford, which is just down the road from Fayetteville.

I've been into woodworking for about 5 years, and mainly build cabinetry, outdoor projects, and simple furniture projects. While I still have tons of room for improvement, I enjoy it greatly. I happen to be a teacher, so I have the luxury of spending lots of time in my shop (garage) in the summer, except for days like today when it's about 95 in there! I look forward to talking to all of you and enjoying the site even more.

- Chris

Welcome to the site, Chris. I am glad that you could join us. What do you teach? I am sure that we all could use some additional learning. As Cathy said we would love to see some pics of your [STRIKE]garage[/STRIKE] shop and anything that comes out of it.
I look forward to your input in the forums, and hope to see you around sometime.

Hey there Chris and welcome. SO it's hot in the shop eh? Read my post on the Swamp Cooler. Might be useful to you.

Thank you all for all the warm welcomes! I look forward to talking to all of you and learning more about woodworking. To Dave - I actually teach high school choir, so it's not too much help in the woodworking arena (except that my classroom is next to the woodshop!). I will hopefully getting around to posting some pictures later this week of some projects. I enjoyed reading about the swamp cooler - right now, though, I plan on insulating the garage better and and adding an A/C unit.
