- When and how did you get into using tools/doing projects?
- I was about 5 or 6 years old. It was during visits to my Grandfather, who had a woodworking shop setup.
- What do you do when you're not tinkering in the garage and working on other projects?
- If I'm not traveling, I’m usually hunting and fishing.
- What's the project you're most proud of?
- Completing an 8' x 12' walk-in shed.
- Any stories of DIY disaster?
- No disasters of any magnitude that were not easily recoverable from.
- Why do you use Craftsman tools?
- Craftsman tools were what I grew up with. They have always represented a great value, quality and the best warranty out there.
- How did you get your DIY skills?
- I received most of my carpentry skills from my Grandfather. Mechanical skills came from my time in the Army as an aircraft electrician.
- Anything you have to say to other craftsmen out there?
- Quality tools, or the lack thereof, can make or break whatever you are working on. With Craftsman tools, there is no worry that you will be lacking in quality tools.
