    Default G’day from WA

    Good evening,

    Starting out, weekend warrior at the moment, accumulating tools and picking up skills from the remnants of my high school wood classes and Youtube. I must confess this whole journey started out with an OCD around spiral screwdrivers and collecting them from as far back as I could find

    Projects to date have been few and far between with my time mostly spent on setting up the workshop. I retire in 3 years so i want all that effort out of the way by then. My objective then is to have a go at making Shaker style tables etc.

    so i joined the forum in the hope i can bounce a few questions around now and again and maybe further hone my skills and knowledge from a group of like minded people.

    Cheers
    Mal

    Thanks. Just a quick one - is there a waiting period that needs to served before getting full access ? i.e. I can't post pics, update my profile or send PM's yet...

    Cheers
    Mal
