Hi from the Gold Coast
Hello to everyone. I stumbled across this forum recently and have spent some time reading bits and pieces. I already have a few posts up but I thought I better introduce myself. My interest in woodworking led me here, I have played around with wood on and off for the past 30 years. Now that the kids are off our hands I find I have more time and my interest has been re kindled. I also have had a fascination with woodturning even at one stage owning a lathe & tools. Sadly I sold those when I moved from Melbourne to the GC back in 2001.
I have already received lots of advice and help from several members here and for that I am very grateful. I am also joining the Gold Coast Woodturners to get some training ad help and looking at buying a lathe in the near future so I can do some turning at home. My background is in metal polishing but these days I do concrete polishing/grinding as well as stone & tile cleaning and sealing. I hope that I can return the help at sometime.

Welcome George
I'll probably catch up with you when I return at the GC Woodturners, I'm still travelling longer term (refer our travel sub-forum), but currently still in Melb.
CheersNeil____________________________________________Every day presents an opportunity to learn something new
