18453 John Patsey <johnpa29@i...> 1997‑05‑15 Bio for John Patsey

Hi,

You might have noticed a couple of posts from me, I am a newcomer to
the porch, and have been reminded by my Galoot guide (Jerry Serviss) 
that a bio is expected before jumping in, so here goes. 

I have been a hobbyist woodworker for a little while, making small items 
by hand, but either bought new tools or scrounged old tools from my
father and father in law. Fortunately I was showing some of my work off
at work (Motorola) and was told "Jerry Serviss would like to see that",
next thing I knew I was at a M-WTCA meeting and left with about 50 cents
in my pocket. I also have started to visit yard and estate sales. I am 
definitely a user type, but am developing a weakness for Starrett items.
The collec... uh... tool box is not too full, but the short time I have 
been here has opened my eyes to all the tools that would make my 
woodworking a lot easier so I expect to change that as finances allow.

John Patsey
