The Wooden Post - Who we are
The editor, has been
involved in wood working for over 40 years:
-
First as a hobbyist
-
Then as a retail tool dealer and sharpening shop
-
And finally as a professional woodworker and cabinetmaker, including:
-
Commercial cabinet making
-
And for the past few years, making display cabinets for several
companies
that sell to the wood working trade.
Now
we are once again in the tool distribution area, bringing a proven line of tools
to the hobbyist as well as to the professional wood worker.
- Each item we
carry has been used in the shop to prove that it works as advertised.
- We
examine the instructions very carefully to insure that the products we sell will
perform as advertised as well as making sure that the procedure is relatively
easy to understand.
- If it doesn't perform as promised without extra
instructions, we simply will not carry the product.
- This is so that you can be
assured that the products we offer will be of top quality and perform as
advertised.
The Wooden Post is a distributor for the Ring Master line of tools,
(our original line of tools
and
it still dominates the work load at our company), however because of the close
alliance to turning it has allowed us to expand into the lathe business with the
introduction of lathes as well as turning products.
Another benefit of the close association
of the Ring
Master with the lathe is that association will often find the editor involved in
both fields. A good position to be in when
reporting on new products that he feels will be of interest to our readers.
Since we are all “toys are us” type of guys,
we
can frequently be found testing new products that are of specific interest to
Ring Master owners as well as woodworkers in general.
Wood finishing techniques are a special
area of interest to him, as you will see from the articles that appear
in the newsletter, and further demonstrated in the numerous woodworking videos he produces.
The Wooden Post woodworking videos cover many aspects of the trade.
