Hi from Tassie

[TassieRob]

Hi Woodies.
My name is Rob and I am based on the north west coast of Tasmania. I have been an active member of the north west woodcraft guild for about 20 years and run a home based woodcraft business. This is my first plunge into being a member of a forum although I have used them from time to time to glean helpful information.

Welcome to the forum Rob. What kind of products does your business produce?

[TassieRob]

Hi Treecycle.

Thanks for the welcome.
I produce a range of products from Tasmanian minor species timbers. My souvenir range includes smaller items including fridge magnets, coasters, rulers, key tags, bottle openers. I use a laser engraver to add designs relevant to the market.
I also produce a range of standard and custom products that are more of a gallery quality. These include boxes with veneer inlay images of animals and birds. Other boxes have engraved images. I also use a cnc to produce carvings for adding to boxes.
The custom orders I produce cover a wide range of different techniques from conventional joinery through to carving, turning and even handmade intarsia.
In time I will post some images after I have figured out how and where to do this.

Thanks for the interest.
