Woodturners of North Texas

About the web site designer - Bill Boehme

The best use for a skew chisel Occupation: Recently retired rocket scientist. After a long career in high-tech - now ready for a much more relaxing low-tech career.
Family: My wonderful wife, Paula, and I are ready to enjoy retired life together. She recently retired as a school teacher, but now has continued to teach part time for a while longer.
Pets: A large male tuxedo kitty, Squeaky.  Squeaky has an adopted kitten, Piglet. Piglet found Squeaky and adopted him as a surrogate parent when its mother was adopted into another home.  The two of them are now inseparable.
Serious Hobby: Woodworking, including my most recent interest, woodturning. I did less-than-fine woodworking until about twenty years ago when I discovered that a jig saw was not the ultimate woodworking tool. This led to acquiring some serious tools and building a real workshop which now also houses two lathes -- and because of that, it is a lot messier.
Other Hobbies: Backpacking, fishing, flying, snow skiing, gardening, and avoiding work.
Hobby that is too close to actual work: Web page designing.
Favorite Charity: National Multiple Sclerosis Society -- for selfish reasons -- I was diagnosed with MS in 1992.
Favorite comic strip: Dilbert
Role model: Wally (character in Dilbert comic strip)
