I'm a member of the South Burnett Woodcrafters Club in Kingaroy. I retired 4 years ago and joined the Club to get advice and practice at wood working.
What a great bunch of blokes, the oldest member is 91 and a walking source of knowledge on all things wood. I have, since joining, done wood turning, clock making and since I purchased my Gifkin Dovetail setup, been making all sorts of boxes.

Of course my second favourite hobby is shooting old rifles, This old girl (1885) was refinished using techniques learned at wood Club.
