Hi All
As you may remember I parted company with my beloved Cougar and all my gear a few months ago due to moving to a townhouse and the deterioration of my wife's eyesight
After suffering severe withdrawal I have found a local Mens Shed where I can get my fix of sawdust and glue for a few hours a week
The Arrunga Community Mens Shed is in Ermington just around the corner and they have a top bunch of Blokes that do a lot of restoration and making of toys and such (good tea and Bickkies )
They have a MC1100 clone that is in good nick (not used much) but the selection of tools is scary at best
(Here comes the plea) :meg: do any of you tool junkies have an odd tool that never gets used? we really need something that resembles a bowl gouge,detail gouge,scrapers or any other spare turning tool that has a bit of life left in it
I will be happy to pay postage to my home in Sydney and will arrange to sharpen,repair as required just send me a PM to arrange
Any help would be really appreciated
Thanks in advance

Thanks to NZ carver (Dave)
We now have a top bowl gouge, detail gouge and a skew
(the B made me turn the handle for the skew:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D) ( How did he know how much I would enjoy that :? )
Thanks mate
I am happy to pay postage or pick up any other tools that may be gathering dust I can promise that they will be put to a good use
Thanks all

You see obviously you were in one to turn handles and I am sure could have used a pair then.

Well done Dave.:2tsup::2tsup::2tsup:
