ProPhil Woodworks
I moved to the US in 2018 (I am French) and I was lucky enough to be able to buy a house. I couldn't find any furniture I liked so I decided to make my own!
That is how I started My Woodworking Journey:
- I started with a Couple of Tools given to me by a Very Good Friend, (not to say Family Member: complicated and interesting Story) and bought more as I needed them for My Projects.
- Regarding Power Tools, I decided to go and stick to the BOSCH Platform (as I used to work for them).
- Regarding the Bigger Equipment, the same Friend started me on Equipment Auctions where I bought My Planer and Bandsaw. Now, I am hooked! I enjoy looking at Old/Vintage Machinery. Sometimes purchase some, take a road trip to go get them, and bring them Home. I enjoy figuring out if they work, how they work, and if they need anything to go back into Good Working Conditions and eventually even Restored!
