Same... as long as I can remember. At 30, I decided no other living would do for me. Now, second only to the joy of making things with wood, I love passing the craft on to others. Woodworking has been good to me. I have credentials, but I prefer we to talk about your gift to create, to tell your story in the making. Hence the name, Epic Woodworking. I offer a virtual apprenticeship, where you up your skills to surpass the ordinary, project by project. We're here on YouTube, but also provide Online Courses/Plans, In-shop Classes/Events and a membership community we call The Neighborwood. MUCH MORE at epicwoodworking.com. But for now, freely linger here. We've been streaming live Thursdays at 8 pm ET since 2019. Watch live or later. Make it fun!😎
