For those of you that have known me for a while, either on Twitter, Facebook or maybe some of the woodworking forums out there, you probably already know I've had this site for a while. And unfortunately, it's a site which I didn't do a whole lot with.  It had a couple videos and a semi-passable theme.  Since then I've gotten a little more fancy in my web desgin skills so I decided to start over.  I've retained all of my previous blog content but I've completely redone the theme I'm using and kept only the header image. I used to use a combination Joomla and WordPress but now I've cut that down to just a Joomla installation so things should be a little smoother and from an admin perspective it should be a little less time consuming.

I'm also adding in a commenting feature that actually works and I threw in Ustream's chat option on the Live Shopcam page. The chat thing may not be very useful since I haven't setup a computer in the shop yet and even if it were there, I don't think I'd be spending my shop time chatting.

I'm still tweaking and fine tuning, so things may change some in the next couple weeks but I'm very close to completion.  Hope you like it. If you have any suggestions, please let me know.

I've got some plans for several new content items I'm working on like some tool reviews of some of my more recent purchases and some tips and tricks that go along with a lot of my current projects like a plantation shutter a la New Yankee Workshop for an entire house.

Hopefully the content will be at least semi-enjoyable and even more important, will provide at least a bit of useful information for your adventures in your own shops.
