Hello from Eugene Or.

Postby grestmit » Mon Jan 02, 2012 6:24 pm

My name is Greg, from Eugene Or. and I have been reading a lot of info on this forum for the last two years. And I am ready to start my first build. I have chosen to use a 5x8 I bought from Northern Tool. I will be putting a 10 foot cubby on it. I have been in cabinetry for 30 years now and am sure this will be a fun departure into another field of woodworking. Plus all the automotive body and paint I have done. Plan on taking this teardrop out by this late spring and through out the summer. Have not found a good place to get aluminum around the Eugene area, many some one out there T and TTT land can tell me where a supplier might be here. If need be I will go to Portland. I will be recording the whole build and making temples. As I am thinking doing a few down the road. We'll see.
