Hi, I've been on this list for a week or two, but haven't introduced
myself.
I started on rec.ww ages ago as a Normite, though I did own a couple
of planes. I still occasionally post, but I'm now more active on
woodnet et al.
HWMBO has stated that the size of my shop must not exceed my
workbench (except during times of active use), thus eliminating any
possibility of major power tools. Rather than whine, I've decided to
embrace constraints (especially given the rents around here, it makes
sense to) and become a proper galoot.
I've been on the ba-galoots list for a few years, but hadn't really
gotten around to any handtool work. I finally found a good class
(with an experienced teacher) and have been starting my plane
collection (and my shaving collection). Oh, yeah, and working some
actual wood.
