About

I am not a professional timber framer, carpenter or woodworker. I just enjoy the art and dabble in it a bit. I’ll be sharing my experiences here on the blog and will on occasion make tool recommendations.

I am not trying to sell my talents (trust me, they aren’t to a level where anyone would want to buy them) but I think one mistake many woodworking blogs  shows and magazines make is that they don’t ever address mistakes.  I always learn more from my mistakes than my successes, so I will be including mistakes and lessons learned whenever possible,  Choices and the reasoning behind them are also important, so whenever possible I will explain what choices I made and a rationale of why.

    Hello,

    I found your blog through LumberJocks and like your philosophy. I always learn more from observing mistakes – in fact that is largely how I know what works! I have friends who are Mennonite gazebo builders who own Golden Rule Gazebo. You might find some images or information on their site you could use.

    I work with Good Millwork and they have a strong blog. If you wouldn’t mind me linking to your site let me know?

    Kindest Regards,
    Gail
