creation of Uncle Bob's Workshop
I've been a carpenter going on 38 years. I've been involved with all aspects of home construction including design and supervision. For a period of time, I owned and operated my own construction company and now am currently employed as a Finish Carpenter Foreman in the Boston area. Walk into any of the 'high end' foyer's in and around Boston and chances are 'we' did it!
I am married with quite an extended family and have been known as 'Uncle Bob' to all the kiddo's, whether friend or family, old or young for as long as I can remember. Always enjoyed the term of endearment and have come up with something new for the kids, of all ages, to have some fun with each time we get together.
My attention has always been towards building vs buying. There is a point of pride associated with actually doing it yourself, not to mention the cost savings. My intent with this site is to educate others to this ideal and pass along a few projects I have proved to work. Of course there's a monetary reason as well. Uncle Bob is heading towards retirement and it would be nice if this turned into a supplementary income.
It has been 2 years of saying I will do this. I'm happy to see it's finally up! Still lots to learn about this website stuff, but it's a start.http://unclebobsworkshop.info
