Hi, I just started with these woodworking newsgroups and they are of
interest to me. I'm currently a student taking woodworking in college. And
I would love to offer my knowledge as best I can. so if you have any
questions feel free to ask. I have about one years experience in woodworking
so far and I know that doesn't seem like a lot but I've learned so much.
talk to you later

I have a general question about wood:

How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood?

A woodchuck would chuck as much wood as a woodchuck could chuck if a
woodchuck could chuck wood.

Ooops, sorry, I'm not the OP that this question was posed to.

A woodchuck would chuck as much wood as a woodchuck could chuck if a
woodchuck could chuck wood.

If you've been lurking you know that there is a great deal of knowledge

Have you ever made any rail and stile cabinet doors with glass as the
panel, and fake muntins, creating a divided light look? How might you
attach the pane to the doors for easy replacement when and if they
break? Thanks. Tom

You have one year in woodworking and you are here to offer your knowledge to
us?! I have done woodworking for thirty years and still don't have the balls
to make that offer!
I think you need to sit back read the group and relax, some of the old
timers around here may teach you a thing or two. Share what you can, but the
combined knowledge here is mind boggling!
For example check this site out!

I used to have a chart of the "programmers confidence curve". It went
up very sharply till his/her first real screwup, then plummeted to zero
and regrew verrry slowly.

I suspect it applies to all human endeavor.

Mark Twain once allegedly said: "When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was
so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got
to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years."

No, I'd make real muntins for separate lights...but, I'd use a small

Seriously though, I remember when I first discovered that I had a 'new

BTW - A survey was done of this NG awhile back and found that the
average age was in the fifties and the average number of years
experience in wooddorking was about twenty something, if I recall
correctly.


Good luck with your new member! g

Why not?

It's entirely possible that someone who's been 'dorking for a year
would have learned something I don't know.

OTOH, if the OP wants to be a regular on the wreck this is a perfect
trial by fire.

My bestest teacher ever was Miss Hankins, Trinity Cathedral School,
Grade Two, Little Rock, AR, ca. 1960. It was my only year of religious
school and I don't recall if she was a Sister or not. I just loved
her. (Oh, right. She couldn't have been a nun, huh? ;)

If you really want to grant yourself some kind of authority on the basis of

For the situation you describe, yes. One would presume that the number
of times one will need to replace a pane would be limited so that
removing brads will be a relatively rare occerrence.
