New Member - Burt

[Burt]

Just a quick note to say hi and pass on a little info about myself.

I grew up in the North Wilkesboro area, joined the Air Force after high school and spent 22 years in the USAF. I currently live in Sumter South Carolina. Some where along the way while I was in the Air Force, I began doing wood working as a hobby. About 15 years ago, I opened my own shop doing custom furniture and kitchen cabinets. I haven't made a lot of money but I sure enjoy woodworking.

Welcome Burt, I am glad you joined us, and thanks for the intro. It sounds like you are doing what many of us dream of, except the lack of money part..I want to be a rich furniture maker :lol: :lol: :lol: I would love to see some of your work. If you have any pictures please post them. I look forward to seeing you around!!!

Burt -- I read your great advice on the EZ Smart System post and immediately knew that you'd be a great member for the forum -- welcome aboard. I've dabbled in custom cabinetry, too, but on a small scale out of my retirement workshop (800 sq ft). As many have already said, we'd love to see some pictures, but not one of them was kind enough to suggest that you need to request a photo gallery first! You'll find the link on the left side of your home page -- click on it and one of the site staff will set up your gallery for you. There are good write-ups in the FAQ Forum on how to upload pics to a gallery or for embedding them in your posts.

Welcome aboard!

Thanks for yours and all the other nice comments. I'll have to round up a few photo's and see if I can figure out to post them.

You mentioned the EZ Smart equipment. I've had the privilege of working with Dino on the development of a couple items. Right now, I'm working on a new routing center for use with the EZ equipment.
