    Default G'day from Western Sydney

    Hi all, long time lurkier first time poster, my name is Jason Wright and I have been reading these posts for awhile. I never had much interest in woodworking but I inherited some old tools and rather than sell them on ebay I decided it would be better to learn how to use them so have been doing a lot of reading and as all of these tools didn't come with a power cord attached that I would be a hand tool only woodworker. I have also been quietly amassing my tool collection and am ready to start on my first ever wood project, my workbench. So for the next couple of weeks/months/years I will be over in the shed portion of the website destroying timber.

    Thanks for letting me in and I look forward to picking your brains.

    Cheers Jason
