Hi my name is Greg.

My Grandfather supplied a bench and vise when I was about 10 and some tools, may still have a wooden plane somewhere maybe.

I loved manual arts at school, wood and metal.
I have swept and cleaned + helped out in a woodworking factory when I was 14 to 16 during school holidays and saterday morning.

I was given private woodworking lessions when I was 16 and built a 2 drawer desk out of jarah from a retired school teacher/carver, who had a mallyroot insert on dining room jarah table.

Persued a carrier in electronics which involved fitting and turning of plastic componets.

Got a job as a computer tech in the 90's.

G'day Greg, welcome to the forum.

I was just down the road from you in Narrogin last weekend.
There were plenty of smoking wheels there!

Best wishes
