    Introduction

    Hi.I've been lurking around here for a few weeks and thought it was high time to introduce myself. My name is Richard and I am from Smithville( hence the sign in name). Smithville is way up in Canada near Niagara Falls. I got wind of this forum after buying a Bt 3100. Here's the first real project from the saw.


    An A&C quilt rack that I built from white ash as a wedding gift. It's all M&t joinery with tusk tenons holding it together.

    I've been on the chat a couple of times and I hope that I can be a contributing part of this forum.
    Thanks, Richard
    From the "deep south" part of Canada
