Hi all,

My name is Mick and I am 58 years old and just starting woodwork.
I have borrowed an Ezycut from my Dad to start.
I have a few small projects to get me going building enclosures for native bees.
I made my first one using a circular saw and spent more time with the plane fixing..
I will hope to get a good saw, something with a cast top but my budget is limited as I am semi retired.
I shall add more to the forum as I make more mistakes.:B

Regards,

Mick

Thanks for the welcome guys. My borrowed saw is very limited as I wish to rip at least 250mm however the Ezycut is about 190mm. If I could get an extension table on one side I can then make another rail for the fence.
This project is on hold as the guy across the road is a woodworker and has all the equipment.
One thing I did was to make two boxes which forms the native bee hive. Looking back on it now I could have made a single box and cut in half. learning...

Regards,

Mick
