178464 c talwalkar <ctalwalkar@y...> 2008‑03‑23 Introduction
Esteemed Galoots,

I've been lurking on the list for a few weeks now and want to introduce
myself to the community here.

My name is Chetan (it's pronounced like "Nathan"), and I've just begun
an apprenticeship of sorts with a traditional craftsman named Don Weber
in Paint Lick, Kentucky.

Right now I am building furniture (Welsh stick chairs, and some
craftsman style tables), with the intention to also do post and beam
framing, blacksmithing, and lumber milling over time.

It's been a great departure from my previous careers writing software
and indentureship in the non-profit industrial complex. Certainly,
stumbling across this community has been one of the highlights of my
experience so far.

Someday I hope to have some wisdom to add to the pile here, though right
now I'm more likely to post requests for tools and info, which I wish I
had done before spending frightening (to me) amounts buying tools of
questionable parentage.

Thanks in advance for your patience and gentle guidance!

-Chetan
