G'day from Melbourne
Hi, I'm Ian, and I'm starting to get back into woodworking.
As a kid at tech school I loved woodwork and made a few projects of my own along the way, but after that uni, work and renovating pushed the interesting woodwork well out of reach.
Now, as I get a bit older, I'm starting to get back into it and I hope I can catch up on a few of those missed years.
I've got some basic hand tools, planes, chisels etc, some very old wooden planes inherited from my wife's grandfather, and a few odd handmade tools inherited from my dad and my grandfather. I've also got a couple of power tools, drills, sanders and a router.
From here anything is possible.
