    Default G'day from Peter in South East Queensland

    My name is Peter from Queensland in a semi rural area (60km from Brisbane) and I have taken up woodworking as a hobby in preparation for my retirement. Or rather when I am forced to retire. I bought the Triton equipment (work bench router table saw and all the extras many of them quite cheap because as there is a temporary? lack of new deliveries stpres are willing to let the bits go for a song.

    I am currently working on practising the joints prior to starting on a few projects for the house.

    Hi Peter, welcome.
    Retirement, forced or not means that you are free to do what you like to do.
    But there is a lady in the house who wanted things to be done around the house .
    Good luck, and have fun.

    Welcome Peter. I never wanted to retire but, about two weeks after I did, I couldn't figure out how I ever got up and went to work for all those years. Hope you enjoy your projects.
