    Default G'day from Brisbane

    Hey all,
    I'm Ben from Brisbane, really new to woodworking but really keen to get some decent projects underway. As soon as I can find some mango wood I'm going to start on a tv unit with a coffee table and hallway table shortly to follow if all goes well. Not looking to rush anything but really motivated to see what I can produce.

    Cheers!
