I've got connections.  As webmaster for the Gwinnett Woodworkers Association (GWA) I send out occasional announcements to all our members.  Part of a recent announcement was a mention that my lathe was for sale.  I was contacted, made a deal, and the buyer paid and picked it up in less than 24 hours.  I'm actually lucky that someone in the GWA just happened to want a lathe.  I'm lucky I had access to such a targeted group of woodworkers.

That's what this GeorgiaWoodworkers.com website is about - access to woodworkers and woodworkers' access to local resources.  Whether it is a lathe for sale, a nice burl or tree from someone's yard, a good deal on a tupelo carving blank, a tour of a nationally know intarsia artist's shop, an entire shop of tools for sale, or availability of trainers / instructors I want  GeorgiaWoodworkers.com to be the next level beyond the local club's websites.  Whether woodworking is a hobby or a profession I hope that GeorgiaWoodworkers.com will help you improve and prosper.

How many times have you overheard a conversation about the great deal someone just found?  Well, here's your chance to be telling that story.  This website will be a resource for any and all woodworking needs.  It will highlight sales, events and opportunities that you might not otherwise hear.  It will help you find instructors for your club's meetings.  It will help local (and even national and international) instructors find opportunities for their classes in local clubs.  It will help us all enjoy woodworking just a little more.

Are you wondering why I sold my lathe?  This should answer your question .
