My name is Jeff Branch and I operate a home based woodshop in Pelham, Alabama USA.

This is my woodworking journal. I talk about the things I make. With each project, I write about the construction process. Some of these projects feature a follow-up document; a woodworking plan, which you can download.

I hope you will look around and be sure to visit again soon.
