Woodworking, Gardening, Laser Engraving

In my free time, I enjoy creating, growing, and generally making things with my hands.  I love to watch something evolve out of nothing because of the time and care that I put into it.  Each year, I have at least three raised beds for gardening, a couple of fruit trees, and lots of colorful flowers throughout my yard.  A couple of years ago, I purchased a 60watt laser engraver that I absolutely love creating with!  I'm able to create home decor products, jewelry and do custom engravings on items for friends and/or customers.
