On a whim last summer, I took a beginner's framing course and I now find myself currently converting the garage into a framing studio.
Despite my ambitions and high hopes, I've really taken to the art of framing and would like to improve upon my skills. A quick browse of the forum shows that there are many helpful and friendly contributors here and I'm looking forward to actively participating in the community.
I've already got a few questions to ask, so let's see if I can find the appropriate forum section to get started.
