    Hi I just found this forum and always seeking to fill my mind with knowledge.

    Making my way to Alaska someday soon. So I'm always looking for project knowledge to work in a practical every day manner. I need to build a band mill to cut lumber, looking to build a plow for my pickup this summer. I have been a mechanic for 34 years so I'm always doing something with my tools. I am a self taught welder fabricator, I love construction and wood working and electronics. I repair old school car audio amps and other items signal processors etc... I drive a fuel tanker so now I work on big rigs and tank trailers. I converted my home to all led lighting saving a whole bunch on electricity bills. Great for off grid lighting. And I love to reload ammo and just about every thing under the sun. Hunting a Kodiak Brown Bear is one thing I must do before the Lord calls me home.

    Hi james106,

    Welcome!

    Sounds like a great set of skills and hobbies. Lots of welders, electronics guys, and reloaders around here.

    If you haven't already seen them, you might enjoy these Bandsaw Mill videos.

    What's next on your build list?

    Hi james106 - welcome to HomemadeTools.net

    That's a good skill set. You'll fit in well around here.

    Bandsaw mill is on my build list too. Do you see any ideas around here that you might build yourself?
