Hello from a hobby woodworker

[MrLittle]

Hi there!
I'm from South Australia, learning the ropes and making some things along the way.

The interest began 14 years ago in high school furniture making as I'm sure it did for a lot of people haha.
Since then I've spent the past two years slowly buying machines and making a couple peices for friends and family.

Currently I'm trying to restore an old OMGA Radial 600 and building a new octagonal aquarium cabinet out of some old Douglas Fir that my dad collected 20+ years ago.

I'm looking forward to learning a lot from this community :)

Thanks for the warm welcome!
I'll be making a thread for my current woodwork project and the resto tomorrow :).
Truth be told the resto only gets worked on when I have time between other projects, and I've hit a bit of a snag with that currently.

But for now heres a few things I've made:
