G'day all
G'day
Great forum!! I've been enjoying reading the posts over the past month or so and reckon I've stumbled across a real treasure grove here.
I've been mucking around with a second (3rd, 4th?) hand triton mk 3 saw table and makita saw and a ditto mastercraft 3-wheel benchtop band saw and other bits n bobs that I got for next to nothing, joined a WW class in the north sydney area, made a kitchen table out of kauri there and various other projects at home since then.
My WIP project is a hall table with slim cabriole legs all in tassie myrtle; started about two years ago and two legs are nearly done bar the mortices, but will definately finish this year...I think.
To help motivate me, I have recently bought a set of LN chisels, what a beauties, perfect balance! I'm now looking at a new bandsaw, am considering the Hammer N4400 after reading all the good reports on the forum, but the additional cost of providing a new 20 amp power supply to drive the 3kW motor would probably make it a NoGo. Will probably go for the SBW-4300MG variable speed unit instead.
Ohh..in case you're wondering, I also have a 3 ft freshwater planted aquarium with rainbows, blue eyes and stray whiptail catfish. (the guppies have long gone....).
Gotta run
Cheers

Lurkers
are better off in here where we can keep an eye on them and train them in our errant ways.
G'day and welcome GoGuppy. Enjoy the ride.

Hi GoGuppy welcome to the forum. I have some fond memories of Sydney. Been away from it for 6 years now.
Reality is no background music.
Cheers John
