Hey guys and gals,

I'm Simon.
23 years old, I've recently re-discovered my love for woodworking. I did it in high school and made a damn nice coffee table, but haven't done anything for about 5 years, and am really getting back into it.

Made my girlfriend a custom jewellry box earlier this year, and have now made a ring box for the engagement ring I purchased recently (man i hope she doesn't find out... haven't popped the question yet).

Looking for some more little projects to get back into woodworking, and would love to get my hands on some good quality tools for as little price as possible, as I'm moving out of home soon and won't be able to use my old man's tools any more.
