    Default G'Day from Cranbourne/Pakenham SE of Melbourne

    Hi,

    I am novice woodworker and have been busy slowly organising my work-area and acquiring an affordable set of tools, but need to ask for some help, in another thread.

    I've been a member here for a wee while and have been lurking on the forums for a while longer and soaking up ideas mainly from the Shed and Work Bench forums.

    I have lived most of my human life in Africa and Europe, but all my grandkids now live downunder, so I recently also immigrated and Australia will be the continent where I intend to push-up daisies!Before then I expect to learn loads and hopefully even meet up with some of the good folk on here to whom I feel apprenticed.

    Heavens knows I could also do worse than eventually support Oz in the cricket. ;-)

    Andy

    Welcome Andy!

    You are not that far away from me in Warragul. Should you wish to learn about (or acquire) a variety of Australian woods to work with let me know by PM or email. I will be happy to help you. Maybe you can drop in one day and have a look around? What do you plan to make/ build as a woodowking hobby?

    In the meantime enjoy the cricket, the grandkids and creatng a new nice workshop / shed to make items in.

    Eugene

    Welcome aboard Andy. But please keep to the standard font in your posts, so us older folk can read them.
