Thrice retired: submarine commander, businessman, college adjunct professor.  Woodworker for 60 years. Anything from architectural restoration to furniture building. Use a mix of power and hand tools. Power tools are like the apprentice of old. They do the heavy lifting. The fine work is done by hand, even if modern tools will do it faster.  Recently became hooked on vintage tools. Specifically edged and layout tools. Like Bridge City tools for the looks; rarely buy them because of inflated prices. Prefer dealers over eBay when it comes to rare and expensive.  Live in Boston suburb. Love little kids and dogs.
