    Default G'day you mob

    I'm Trevor , my trade is in heavy diesel , whilst in high school I built a wood lathe and used it a bit way back then , hasn't been used much at all for near on 40 years . My neighbor is moving away and gifted me a car trailer full of African mahogany rough sawn into 50mm slabs , so I've gotten hold of a saw bench and hoping to get a thicknesser so I can turn it into useful timber .
