I'm new to the forum and hopefully I'll have a lot to contribute
I'm originally from Atlanta Ga where I had my entire basement of a 3 BR house dedicated to a workshop (I was single then)
In '96 I relocated to Sydney Australia for a 2 year contract, I only brought about a footlocker full of hand tools to keep myself sane. After I met my wife we bought a 70's built house west of Sydney which was my “little fixer upper” for 7 years. It was also a legitimate reason to buy new tools. Three years ago we moved to Queensland (near Brisbane) and after about a year bought a 2˝ acre block where I build a steel frame kit home on the week ends over about a year, where we live now. We have finally sold the house in Sydney and are about to extend. This will include the master suite that I intend to fit out with heaps of custom goodies.
I have a 7m X 12m shed and I'm allowed to covert half of it into my workshop. :)
Right now we're still cleaning up from the flood in January, I have two kids under 7yo and a full time gig...so it's been slow going.
My plan is to use the need to post good stuff on the forum as a motivator to get me off my lazy bum.
