Welcome to the site, Ken!!!:eusa_danc:eusa_danc:eusa_danc:eusa_danc

Sure sounds like you got a really neat place to entrench yourself in woodworking during the NC summer months. I am sure that inspiration abounds up there on the mountain.

Lots of great folks here at NCWW and lot of folks out in western NC!:wsmile:

We look forward to hearing more from you and possibly some pictures of your work.

Have fun and post often!

Welcome to the site, Ken -- Happy to have you join us even though you are in NC only for part of the year. For your information, there is a group of woodworkers that get together once each month in the Asheville area for sharing ideas, techniques and almost anything related to wood. I'm President of the Western NC Woodworkers Association and we have a website at www.wncwa.org where you'll find information about the organization and our next meeting. We meet at the 10,000 sf shop of one of our professional members in Fletcher (it's about 60 miles from Whittier) and at our March 14th meeting we will feature Jack Hastings on guitar making. PM me your email address if you want more details about the meeting or the Association.

Glad you've found us and welcome to the dust pile.
