Newbie from Toowoomba
G'day All.
I'm a late starter as a woodworking enthusiast. I've always been a fan but my career kind of got in the way. It's only during the last 4 years that I have been able to start to build both my skills and my workshop. There is still a long way to go with both!
Another passion of mine is photography. If I can work out these forums I hope to be able to document some of my projects as I go along.
best,
Stu
Veni, Vedi, Vicmarc. I came, I saw, I did a little woodturning.

G'day Stu, you'll find many late starters on this forum - so many start in retirement because, like you I guess, day jobs get in the way. We'll be pleased to view any pictures of your effort when you manage to post.

Hey Stu,
Welcome aboard. I'm just down the road near Cunningham's Gap. There's plenty of people here closer to Toowoomba, so help should readily me at hand.
I think I can give you one tip though, based on your photo - don't get so close to the tablesaw when you blow the dust away
