New To Furniture
G'day,
I'm Brisbane based and keen to learn how to make furniture so thought this would be a good place to see how other people go about it.
Done the normal senior school wood working classes and help Dad out around the house, but would diffidently consider myself a beginner.
Looking forward to learning.
Cheers

Matt, I can say without any doubt and complete sincerity that this is absolutely the right place to be.
These guys and girls will guide you and offer the best possible advice (and then some)... an absolute goldmine of problem solving and wisdom.
Its awesome. I've often felt it should have a paid membership... its rude to receive so much for free
Welcome and congratulations on catching "the bug".

G'Day & Welcome to a top forum "Matt".
There are a stack of members in Brisbane and across S.E. Queensland plus the rest of the country.....
You'll find a heap of helpful & knowledgeable blokes & ladies on the forum and for most very willing to assist.
Make sure you show off your handiwork as everyone loves a photo, especially WIP [Work In Progress] photos with build notes.
Enjoy the forum.
Enjoy your woodwork...
Cheers crowie
