    Default G'day to me

    It's so long since I experienced the smell of wood I don't know where to start - even the language has changed.
    The choice of tools is staggering, and what they do is frightening but that didn't stop me from buying.

    I am very pleased to have found this forum and you may wish I hadn't. My motto:

    You're only as good as your teacher - keep looking!

    Hi Soth and welcome.

    These forums are great, I have learnt so much here and continue to do so. I just hope you have a good (and sometimes twisted) sense of humour. God knows you need it here!
    Have a nice day - Cheers

    Welcome Soth. I'm relatively new as well, and the wealth of knowledge and the humour here is great.

    I am sure you will be pleased to know that a well known woodworking store will be opening in Mildura very soon.

    Hi Soth,

    If you're half as dopey as the rest of us here, you'll have a lot of fun, and learn more than you might imagine.

    No Mate. I've been out of "the game" for about 50 years. What I thought I knew, I didn't. And I've learned nothing since.

    Can you tell?? The name, I mean.

    No name has been painted/attached/erected, but I now reckon I do know 'who is comming to town" - I'll make a stab and say the hyphenated company name begins and ends with the letter "C". This investigative report is based solely on the exterior colours of the building.

    .......... so I'm wrong again - the brilliant red and blue frontage had me thinking Carba-Tec. Of course I hadn't checked if retail outlets where using the manufacturer' name.
