Hi Guys,
Beginner woodworker here from Cairns.
Took a 101 class at the woodworking guild here about a year ago and really found it satisfying, but haven't really done anything more since.
Going to get back into it again now. Starting off with hand tools because I don't yet trust myself not to lose a finger with any machinery. I've got myself some hand planes, chisels, saws and a few clamps to start off with.
My current goal is to build myself a bench to work on going forward. Been looking at a lot of online resources so far but they're very US-centric.
Got some designs I like the look of but unsure on the best type of woods to use (and honestly the entire process of going to buy the wood feels intimidating).
