Friday lunch prattle

[Simplicity]

Well I discovered a new species called Beefwood, which sounds pretty versatile. I think the only timber that was mentioned twice was Tasmanian Oak (Yvan and myself), so does that mean it wins?

Beefwood is nice, so is snakewwod but I’m still going through my Gidge stage .
An lance you can’t beat your local, for Huon pine.

Cheers Matt.

Meeting tomorrow? If so, is there a theme?

Regards
Paul

[LanceC]

Yes!

Tomorrow's topic: If a fairy could grant you one woodworking skill tomorrow night, what would it be, and why?

It could be to saw straight, sharpen well, set up a band saw or anything else you wish you were able to do well.

Open to all who would like to join.

Hoping to join in from the office.
If Paul doesn’t have an issue with me sitting in the office .

But if I don’t, my wish (How to finish projects in a meaningful time lol)

Cheers Matt.

If I am there I will be 10 minutes late again. I don't believe in fairies.

[LanceC]

I don't believe in fairies.

Sheesh, didn't you know that every time someone says that, a fairy dies somewhere?

[doug3030]

Sorry I missed it today - it was because all the fingernail technicians had to close down again due to the covid restrictions.

Naturally that necessitated an emergency detour to Bunnings on the way home for a litre of acetone.

Can it really be another week already?

Having too many projects on the go at once was a recurring theme on last week's chat, so this week's topic is: If you could lay out one of your projects in your workshop for the elves to complete during the night whilst you slept, which would it be?

As always, everyone and anyone is welcome to join in.

I have a fighting chance of being there (possibly a few minutes late) this week.

Unfortunately I have no resident elves in my shed, but i do occasionally get visited by a grey cat called Mango who lives diagonally across the back corner behind the shed. I encourage Mango to visit because he crawls around under my shelves discouraging the mice. He usually nicks off as soon as I start a power tool so I doubt he would have the skills to finish any projects for me.

I’m a unknown for tomorrow,

Cheers Matt.

[Bushmiller]

See you all at midday.

Apologies all, as I'm walking in the alpine winter, I won't be around this Friday.

Atop Mt Field at the moment, first bit of phone reception in two days, so thought I'd better update you all now.

[poundy]

so, not cold at all huh.

[Simplicity]

So our fearless Zoom leader has gone walk abouts.
I suppose I can wait till he gets back !!.


Cheers Matt.

[Bushmiller]

Couldn't make it this week so next week suits me fine.
