Hi all,

My grand-father was a cabinet-maker, and I guess I have that in my blood. I've always loved the smells in his workshop and the patina of his hand tools.

I have absolutely no training in woodworking but I know this forum is full of invaluable tips and information!

For now, I would like to tackle box making (toy box for the kids, battery box, hair accessories box, ...) so that I can get a bit more organisation in the house.
Second type of project I would like to investigate is between stairs / under stairs storage.

I am looking forward to exploring the forum, to getting help when I am stuck, and to putting into practice what I would have learnt.

Kindly,
Leafy

Hi Leafy, welcome to the forum. You don't need any training, just a passion for wood and learning. I'm also in Brisbane. Any questions don't hesitate to ask.
