Woodworking has been a lifelong passion. You can find more about how I got interested in woodworking by clicking the about tab or see some of my work in the Custom Furniture tab. I write for two blogs, the “What’s on My Workbench Blog” is where I write about the furniture I build for myself and for my customers. This blog is where I write about the woodworking that falls behind the bench, or what goes on behind the scenes. The projects I build to improve my shop, the jigs I make to build the projects, and the tools I use.
