Hi all,
I'm so glad I found this forum. Its hard to find communities these days that are filled with people who are passionate about their topic or hobby and successfully managed to keep out the spam and chaff.
I have had several different careers, but the relevant ones for here are my current ones. I am an electrician by day, and I run a design/fab furniture shop in my afternoons (I also have 2 young kids, so they get my nights).
I have several goals for joining up here, but I'd love to start out by building a nice setup for my workshop music. As always happens, I'm sure I'll dive in just deep enough to want to make different and more advanced stuff after I get my feet wet.
Just so I can point back to here in future threads, I have a 3'x3' spindle-powered CNC (and a 4'x8' soon, hopefully), a 3D printer, a decent grasp on Fusion 360, a full compliment of woodworking tools, and a nice little bench power/soldering station.
I look forward to picking your collective brain to get some cool things built and I hope to gain enough experience to be able to contribute my own advice in due time.

The Name of the Wind is a fantasy novel I enjoy. In it, there is a tavern called the Eolian, where musicians perform for a pretty discerning crowd in an attempt to attain a sort of "journeyman musician by popular acclaim" status. It resonates with me on a few levels.
