I just began two months ago. My wife bought me a compound miter saw and said, "You've been talking about getting into woodworking since I've know you. Here, go make some sawdust." I know have a fairly well equipped little shop and I'm learning by videos and communities like this one and LumberJocks.com.
I have liver cancer and I started woodworking as a therapy, mentally, physically and spiritually. IT WORKS! I thank God for this blessing. I am blogging about my experience at Woodworking For Therapy . I hope to encourage others to try woodworking as a form of therapy and encourage them to chose to Live, not just waste away.
I've never made a pocket joint so I just picked up a Kreg Jig Jr. I found a plant stand that I want to build using all pocket screw joints. The plans are free at Plant Stand
I hope to get started on this soon.

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.
