19972 Lawrie Silverberg <lsilv@g...> 1997‑06‑10 Autobiography
Hi All,

  I'm new to this list and have been asked to do this bio as a right
of passage.  My name is Lawrie Silverberg.  I am a 51 year old
follicularly and estrogenally challenged person ( I prefer the days
when I was a bald male).  I live in the country north-west of Toronto
Ontario, in Canada (the hell of the used tool world as another member
has described it).   When not at home with my wife and the dogs,  I'm
probably in my dental office telling people that I won't hurt them. 
  I have only been woodworking for  about 1 1/2  years  and  don't
specialize in anything specific at this time.  I've mainly been making
things for my shop as practice for the more sophisticated work that I
hope to do.  Actually I have made a nice frame and panel stand for a
statue.  
   I have a TS, BS, ROS, and router (sorry) but get my greatest
pleasure from using my hand tools, which I use as often as possible.
Right now I'm making a storage unit for my tools and am cutting 208
dovetails by hand.  Hopefully I'll know how to do it by the time I'm
done.
