My name is Paul Howard, I live in Arkansas I'm retired from Kraft Foods. I started woodworking about one year ago. I joined the kreg group to learn more about the craft and I also like Kreg products, and own and use them in my shop.

[Herb Haubrich]

Hello,

My name is Herb and I live in Madison Wisconsin.  I taught high school wood shop for 20 years and I still have all my fingers.  I've built my own house and many personal projects during that time.  I've always enjoyed using the Kreg jigs but have never owned one of my own.  I look forward to learning from this community and continuing to use my new Kreg.

On a side note, I'm also into motorcycling, aviation, and watching the Green Bay Packers.

Welcome Herb I share all of your passions except for one of them I am from Minnesota, but the packers are my #2 team :}

Welcome

Ron

[Tony Martin]

Greetings all,

My name is Tony and I would consider myself an intermediate level woodworker, but really enjoy building things with my hands. I live in Virginia and retired on July 1, 2017 so I have more time now to devote to some projects. I joined the Kreg Community to get some inspiration from other woodworkers. I enjoy working with reclaimed wood products, taking something old and making it new again.
