About the web site designer – Bill Boehme

wwOccupation: Soon-to-be-retired rocket scientist. After a long career in high-tech – now ready for a much more relaxing low-tech career.
Family: My wonderful wife, Paula, and I are ready to enjoy retired life together. She recently retired as a school teacher, but now has continued to teach part time for a while longer.
Pets: Two kitties. Circles, a seventeen year old blind tabby and, Squeaky, a black and white youngster (weighing in at sixteen pounds).
Serious Hobby: Woodworking — I did less-than-fine woodworking for the greatest part of my life. I converted to fine woodworking about fifteen years ago when I discovered that the Skilsaw was not the ultimate woodworking tool. This led to acquiring some serious tools and building a real workshop.
Other Hobbies: Backpacking, fishing, flying, snow skiing, gardening, and avoiding work.
Hobby that is too close to actual work: Web page designing
Favorite Charity: National Multiple Sclerosis Society — for selfish reasons — I was diagnosed with MS in 1992.
Favorite comic strip: Dilbert
Role model: Wally (character in Dilbert comic strip)

About this web site: This web site was designed as a personal challenge to myself because I enjoy such endeavors and also to provide a communications medium for a fine Wood Online friend and fellow woodworker, Ralph Jones, so that he could provide a woodworking educational web site to serve other woodworkers. It is my hope that this web site will meet his need in achieving this objective.
