    Default Another WAlien saying G'day

    Hello Ladies and Gents.

    Been doing woodworking for about 2 or 3 years. It was a subject I really enjoyed in high school and thoght I would love to do "one day". I am mid-40s now. I started simple and worked my way slowly into more complex projects. Been mostly doing furniture pieces for the house.

    Recently moved into a newly built house so I have a clean slate to work with. I can see myself doing lots of project pieces, I want to get them right and make them "perfect", so I'll be asking for lots of advice.

    Pictures of a few projects I have done..

    Yes. It is pine and jarrah for the chess squares, and meranti also included in the border. The middle part of the table pops out and flips over with s Stratego board on the other side.
