Jack of all trades, Master of none

[Hoosiersmoker]

I have hovered here for some time and enjoy everything I have seen. I am not a group joining kind of guy but this one has great resources and I think I can actually offer some useful input. I have done everything from fast food and fabrication to supervision and program development and implementation. Nearing retirement, I have been trying to build a home woodworking shop complete with shop made tools. I look at it as wood working with modern but hand crafted tools. I bought a band saw, table saw and power miter saw but have designs for a medium duty wood lathe, a hand drill - drill press and a belt - disc sander. Ill try to post progress and pictures as these are built (and probably disassembled and re-built!)
