The Secret of Trim – 6 Essential Carpentry Tips and Tricks

Eric February 25, 2013 5 Comments

Coping SawI love working with wood. I don’t know if it’s my manstincts kicking in (*New Word Alert: Manstincts – Man and instincts put together), but cutting and shaping wood brings me to a primal state that often makes me raise my head and caveman grunt like Tim “The Tool Man” Taylor.
