165303 "Marty Reser at Specialty Packaging" <mreser@s...> 2006‑11‑30 bio
Hi, I have been lurking for a few years now and am about to put a foot up on
the porch.

I started playing around with wood when I was about 7 as my dad was a
woodworker.

He was happy to show any of my 9 siblings and I anything he knew. I used to
be addicted to tailed apprentices but have mostly weaned myself off of them
except when it makes sense. I have a nice assortment of hand tools, some
younger than me and most older. I'm 52 and have done carpentry, plumbing,
welding, machining, industrial maintenance, consulting, and plant
management. Not all well, but enough to make a living. 

.At the moment I live just outside Fort Worth, Tx and have been lucky enough
to meet a few galoots at MWTCA meetings and been to a few hand tool classes
at Homestead Heritage. I've really learned a tremendous amount while
monitoring this list and am amazed at the assembled knowledge. Hope to learn
some more so I'll mostly just sit back and try to pay attention.

Marty Reser
