new to this site/introduction
Hi all. My name is Nate. I own a tree service and small/scale logging company in the Great Pacific Northwest. Presently, I only operate part time as I am going to school. I decided to go back to learn some welding theory, learn to work with GTAW and just become a better welder in general. When necessity and lack of funds require it, I like being able to make my own tools from raw materials and scrap. Being able to make something which functions better than what I could buy in a store for less money than I would spend to buying it from someone else is very satisfying. That's how I found this site. At the moment I am looking at making a removable crane to load some maple burls onto my flatbed. When I found this site and started looking at all of these examples of people using creative ingenuity, resourcefulness, and some wit I knew I had to register. This is a great site. I like the spirit of it. I hope to learn here and hopefully maybe be able to eventually contribute something worthwhile as well. I'm just happy to be here. Thanks.
