Yes!

I’m looking for some friends to be our true selves, to talk nonsense about the mundaneness of everyday life or the big picture things and anywhere in between. Something enriching, where we build each other up. Text preferred.

A little about me. I am a 33 year old woodworker and student living outside of Boston, sometimes with the accent. I’m into hiking, spirituality and metaphysics, music, smiling in public. studying until my eyes bleed, long walks of introspection and cooking for seniors. Seriously.

If you are looking for the same, feel free to say hello!

RT @DocMCohen: The people telling you that #COVID19 is the time to learn a new language or master woodworking are the SAME ONES who ask you what you did during mat leave.

It’s same activities for both, Karen: stress eating, sleeping badly and crying in the shower.

Dovetail Wednesday 🙂 Working on drawers for the pair of cabinets. After a while, a system develops. #dovetails #joinery #drawer #woodworker #woodworking #furnituremaking #furnituredesigner #handtools #handtoolsonly #woodworkersofinstagram #finewoodworking @woodskillsmag

Today I had my first real accident with a piece of machinery in over 20 years of doing this work. I was distracted and doing something I’ve done probably a million times but it bit me in the ass.

While edge joining a piece of maple I managed to nick the tip of my middle finger on the knives. That fingertip is now gone, and although it didn’t hurt in the moment it doesn’t feel so great now. Thankfully, my doctor is a quarter mile away (and is an avid woodworker that has done terrible things to his hands over the years), so I was able to about the ER. He was able to stitch the end of my finger together to reduce the scarring but it will definitely never look the same.

Basically the point of this post is to say please be careful! It is hard to not be distracted during this trying time, but you need to stay focused. I am 41 years old and have been a cabinetmaker since I was a teenager, so I am not at all new to this. I’m embarrassed that I made this mistake, but figure if I can use it as a warning to others it can serve some useful purpose. Stay safe out there!
