Hello from Illawarra ,NSW

[bricknoun]

Hey everyone,
I’m new here, live in the Illawarra area and am just starting to get in to woodworking after many years of wondering.

My first proper project was a wooden truck for my nephew. Just made from oak from Bunnings but had a great time doing it. I’ll post some pics when I work of out how.

I’m also really keen to get a lathe and start turning as I’ve had a few I dead rolling string in my head for various plates and bowls for a while.

Hope to see you all around. Cheers.

Here’s the Ute I made. The payload is held on with magnets so can be swapped out.
doors and window carvings are a little rough but pretty happy with how it turned out for a first try.
