    Default Ciao from Perth

    Hi!


    My name is Gino, and I am interested in woodworking and building wooden boats


    my grandpa was a fine Italian artisan, but I didn't get the chance to learn from him unfortunately


    I am a total beginner at woodworking, and I have done just a few projects--a pikler triangle and a wobble board for my son, and a desk from a salvaged benchtop (I've actually also made a planter box but consider that woodworking is an insult)


    I got space on my apartment's balcony only at the moment, but it's crazy how much it is possible to do with willpower and a few hand tools


    hope to learn heaps more, one day build a wooden dinghy and beyond


    Ciao
