For a long time, I've really wanted to get into wood working. I don't know a THING about it. Have no clue how to operate a drill press, circular or band saw, or most other power tools. See, the "Private School" I attended as a young man did me a great injustice by killing off "Industrial Arts" before I was old enough to take the class. SO, here I am. Wanting to start out and not having the faintest idea how to do it.
Here's what I will be making tho - a fret-less mountain banjo. Nothing sounds like them, nothing feels like them, and I know I can do it. There are gun and fiddle makers in my family, in fact, my great grandfather was one of them. It's got to run in the blood. How else do you know that you'll be successful before you even start?
Well, there's always the possibility that I'm a raving head case too...
