A lot of mistakes and a little bit of Good Luck
Hey there! I’m Cara, the owner and operator of Good Luck Woodworks here in Lancaster, Ohio.
My journey into woodworking began in 2018. I had just quit school, moved back home with my parents and was feeling lost, confused and terrified about what to do next.
A friend of mine was in need of a coffee table and I was in need of a way to fill my time. I started messing around in my dad’s garage, coming dangerously close to losing fingers while teaching myself to use power tools.
That coffee table was an absolute monstrosity, but it sparked something inside me that had been waiting to come alive. It was a love story, me and that garage. I fell hard and I fell fast and I haven’t really looked back since.
I’ve got a space full of all my own tools now and i’m not calling my dad for help nearly as much (okay, maybe only like half as much) In a way I feel like i’m really just getting started. I’m happy to be here, and i’m happy you’re here too.
Thanks for stopping by, and as the old men at the lumber yard say, “Good Luck sweetheart!”
