Shawn, stop by your local Rockler store at 421 E. Kemper or visit Woodcraft at 500 Kolb Street in Fairfield.(Now you know why you put your city/state in your profile!) Both of these stores will be happy to demo equipment for you. Ask about classes, some are held in the stores. You will find a wealth of "how to" books and plans, supplies for projects and maybe even a friend or two.

Ed, You hit the nail on the head... just like you always do. Telling people I am from Hockeytown is a chat room habit. After all, it's not like we do a lot of bragging on the Tigers or Lions. Motown is no good, even "The Motor City" doesnt inform like it used to. That said, I will edit my profile to read: Hazel Park, MI. (Everybody in the suburbs of Detroit just claims to be from Detroit) Here is a trivia tidbit: Did you know that Canada is south of Detroit? Windsor, Ontario is just across the river.
