Howdy from Arkansas

My name is TJ and I live in Arkansas. A few of ya'll may know me from one place or another. For those of you that don't, I'm not much of a traditional woodworker. I mainly do scrolling and goof off a lot while I'm at it. Over the years I have tried other forms of woodwork, but enjoyed scrolling the most so I decided to specialize in it. I have a goofy sense of humor and I like to have fun, so my shop is covered with all kinds of signs that I think are funny, license plates from just about every state that people have sent me and hundreds and hundreds of Mardi Gras beads hanging everywhere. I like having my shop filled with things that amuse me. For those of you that's not on my facebook, here's a new pic of the inside of my shop. I'm looking forwards to visiting here and meeting ya'll whenever I have the chance.TJB

Hey Greg

Intarsia has brought me a lot recognition the last few years, but fretwork will always be my favorite. I would be glad to answer any questions that I can, but I get a lot of emails and messages every week and I always miss some. If I happen to miss a question from someone, ya'll please don't think I'm ignoring anyone.
