Hello:
I thought I would ask if any of the club members know of a wood co-op or shared workshop space in the Fraser valley. I know there is a couple of them in Vancouver, but I live out in Langley and that isn’t practical for me to go all the way out there to work on stuff. I am newly married and live in a basement suite which leaves nowhere to work on projects and I have a few I want to work on, especially over winter.
I have prior experience with woodworking tools, I took 4 years of woodworking in high school and I have also used my dads stuff on a regular basis since then. Unfortunately my dad just doesn’t have the space and his shop isn’t heated so working on projects there is difficult. I have my own hand tools; saws, planes, chisels, drill and a small drill press.
I am looking for somewhere that is similar to these places downtown that have the big power tools that I can go use 1-2 times a week in the evening or ok weekends. I am willing to contribute money to whoever would let me use their shop. If you know of anything then let me know.
I can be reached at jstare@hotmail.com or at 604-721-4933.
Thank you, James Stare
