Hello from Chadstone (SE suburb) of Melbourne

[carloscm]

G'day everyone,

It's good to say hi to woodworking guru here.

I've been doing working in offices for ages and I'm trying pick up a hobby that really use my hands and I can spend time alone enjoying the moment myself. I'm an absolute beginner, aiming at making some shelves closets and light furniture at home/garage.

I probably need advices about what tools I'll need and how to use them in a SAFELY manner.:fingerscrossed:

Looking forward to chatting to you!:)

Regards,
Carlos

Welcome to the forum.
Don't be afraid to ask questions.
I am no expert, but would be happy to help you with some basic stuff.
For many things, practice and practice helps, but so does having good quality tools and where necessary sharp tools.
