FUCK wiring I've always hated that shit.  Every time I have to do wiring I make someone else come in and do it.


I self taught my self everything I know, and its getting easier.

I have yet to shock my self.

I have shocked myself but not while running wires. I was using a circular saw and skimmed over the cord just enough to take the protective layer off. Shit sucked a trash bag full of dicks. I just hate running wires, always hated it and I am not really sure why.

when I think about the time and cash it takes to get someone else to do it, I could have it done already.

I have a lot of friends that are in the same or similar business so what it really boils down to is a phone call an offer of a couple bucks and a case of beer and I have my shed wired.

Oh and I am trying REALLY REALLY hard to get some Osage Orange wood off a guy so I can make a new table. If I happen to get it (chances aren't looking good) I'll get some pics up

Also, it turns out that there is a local wood workers association, just 40 min from me.

I got a call from a guy I had emailed about some hand planes he had on craigs list. we talked for about an hour, and I'm going to start going to the monthly meeting.

Cant beat free info and guidance.

Woodworking is just like any thing else. Squash your ego and be willing to take advice and criticism.

I have no ego, I have boat loads of ambition, and lots of equipment.

I take anything people are willing to give me.
