Thread: G'day from cintamate

Hi to anyone out there. I am new to the forum and have been tinkering with wood for a little while. Attending a girls secondary college I didn't have classes in woodwork. I chose to learn a bit about it at a TAFE in Melbourne in hobby woodwork. Great course except I was disappointed because (and I appreciate the intent) when we would leave our projects until the next weeks class, a fairy carpenter would come in and fix the mistakes. My gues it was about students ending up with a finished project. Although I didn't get to learn from my mistakes. I then did a second course a bit further advanced to learn how to operate some power tools. several years later I became interested again and started with a Triton workbench. I have a few tools now and with the help of my brother and some of his larger tools we have built a coffee table and my most recent attempt was a bookcase with doors. Love the forum and will also connect with the women woodwhisperers. Have found it very helpful so far. Love your work
