55289 Gwynne Little <cbbghl@t...> 1998‑12‑29 Bio-Gwynne Little
 I have been lurking for an embarrassingly long time and have decided that
it is
about time I identified myself.  I am a biochemist on the faculty of Texas
Tech University School of Medicine in Lubbock.  I am 57 years old and have
two daughters and three grandchildren.  I have spent every spare nickel on
tools since the age of 10 and have, therefore, acquired a fair assortment
of hand and power tools for both wood and metalworking.  I have about
200 planes, and enjoy using them; but I am not the least
bit hesitant to use power tools, especially for such labor-intensive
operations as resawing and ripping long boards.
     I am a member of the Southwest Tools Collectors Association and the
Midwest Tool Collectors Association.  I attend the SWTCA meetings in
Arlington fairly frequently (since my daughter lives there) and
occasionally attend meetings elsewhere.  I have had private dealings with a
couple of members of the group (Keith DeGrau & Eddie Sirotich).  I have
known Bob Davis for quite a few years, and we get together a couple of
times a month to have lunch and talk about tools.  I hope to have the
opportunity to become acquainted with more of you as time goes by.

Best regards,
Gwynne Little
