Hey all, I just found this forum after I came across the Tools in Action youtube channel recently. I'm 34 years old, living in Aurora, IL with my wife and 9 month old son. I work as a mobile app developer, but I grew up around tools. My dad was always fixing or building something. Since finishing school I've been a lot more into technology than tools but I'm getting the urge to start building and fixing more things lately. When we had our son earlier this year I did a modest remodel on his room: paint, carpet, new trim, chair rail, closet. I think it went well enough that my wife will let me do more projects around the house now, and I may eventually want to get into a bit of woodworking to build some shelves and cabinets for us and family/friends. So I'm starting to replace all the hand-me-down and bargain bin tools I've got so far with ones that will hold up better as I do more projects. I think next we're going to rip up the carpet and put down hardwood or laminate in our main living room, so I'm checking out various saws and multi-tools for that job. Leaning toward the Milwaukee m18 line if the wife won't kill me for spending that much! The TIA videos really helped me get a good feel for what the current state of tools is; I'm still going through watching all the old ones to try and learn more. Love this site, thanks Eric and Dan for putting it all together!
