I have been dabbling in woodworking since High School.  I spent 21 years  in the Army. Which was good and bad, no time to enjoy  my Hobby, but almost every base where stationed had a woodshop for use. Would start a project, then be off in the World for a bit, then try to finish what I had started when returning. 

So here I am, hoping to gather any knowledge, techniques info on machines etc.

Thank you for including me. 

Welcome Chris, always good to see new arrivals.

 

 

Welcome Chris! And, thank you for your service. 

Glad you're here Chris.  Look forward to your participation.

Welcome Chris. Thank you for your service. Happy you found us and looking forward to your on-going part participation here. A great group of people plus very talented in many arenas. Look around and don't hesitate to ask questions or offer suggestions. See you around the virtual workbench.

 

Oh yeah, new guy buys donuts. Your day is tomorrow. Chocolate covered glazed moves you to the front of the line just behind me.

Howdy from Texas Chris!

Hi Chris, and welcome. There are a lot of smart people here, and they are very generous with their time and knowledge. Woodworking wise I’m still in the asking stage, and not yet in the answering stage.  Unless the questions are for electrical, I be an electrician. I’m from Pepperell MA so where abouts from NH you be? 

Welcome aboard Chris. First, thank you for your service. It's great to see another New Englander here. Looks like you're located about midway between Keene and Lebanon.. My wife was originally from Keene and my father lived in Westmoreland NH for a number of years. You've found the best of the best here at The Patriot woodworker. Great group of guys, always willing to help, and you'll find no attitudes here. There are no so called stupid questions here.  

Join in and enjoy .

 

Welcome aboard, Chris.  Show your projects.  We loveeeeeee pictures.

I saw the location. No need to tell me.

I've heard Elm City Brewing in Keene does a really nice burger platter  Why is it that I am triggered into food references every five minutes?

 

Welcome! If I make it to Tunbridge VT in October for the Mini-Bluegrass Fest, I'll give ya a wave 

Woodman, I've been once, don't remember what I had, but a safe bet it was a burger.

Welcome aboard Chris, glad to have you here.

Are the leaves fixing to turn colors now?  Bet it's beautiful up there. 

Cal,

They are just starting to turn. Curious to see what colors are prominent with the dry summer we've had. The one pictured is an over achiever, already done😀.

Welcome aboard!
