G'day!
G'day everyone. I am in Perth and have no woodworking experience/skills at all.
My three year old son recieved a "tool kit" from his grandfather for Christmas. Rather than watch a variety of household furniture succumb to a 3yr old and his enthusiastic tools i tried to get ahead of the game and mangled together a wooden workbench for him. Though the result was marginally shy of impressive it has provided a bit of an itch that im looking to scratch.
I hope the joining of this forum might assist me with my "itch"?
As i'm very new to this i hope you all can find the patience to answer or if need be ignore my future probably dubious questions.
Finally thank you to all contributers past and future to this forum. You provide an opportunity to learn things i would otherwise probably never have even attempted.
G'day again from sunny Perth
Ian

Hi Ian and welcome to the forum. Just fire away when you have any questions. Thats what it's all about.
Reality is no background music.
Cheers John

Welcome to the forum Ian. There are great folks here from all levels of the skills spectrum and they don't seem to mind dumb questions - I've certainly tested that theory!
Woodworking with my Dad resulted in some of the greatest memories of my childhood.
Love to see a photo of the bench.

Welcome Ian, I also recieved my first tool from my grandfather
a Large tenon saw which i still have
i recieved it 18 years ago and will be bringing it back to life very soon, either by sharpening it or by cleaning it up and using some Clear-Laquer and wall mounting it next to my old hammer
hope you're son grows up with some great memories of the things you two will build together
