Hi there guys my name is Mick and come from the Hunter Valley (Maitland),I'm 54 yrs old and had to finish up working in the coal mining industry after 27years... 18 months ago due to a back injury,i will be terminated in August,so i haven't been able to find any sort of work at the moment due to still being on compo... since i have been off i started making Wooden Fishing Lures and about 6 months ago i joined a Mens Shed at Raymond Terrace and got interested in the Woodturning where they teach beginners like myself and have experienced turners as well and a guy that makes great pens..so did the google thing and found you guys..hope to learn alot from the forum and from what i have read so far it looks excellent...ok back to reading lots of posts...cheers Mick!!!
