Starting my woodworking journey.
Hello Everyone,
Excited to be a member here after lurking for awhile and trying to read and learn all I can. The local knowledge seems invaluable.
I'm slowly getting a few tools together and creating a suitable work shop area, but cant wait to start.
Now I just need to actually finding some decently priced hardwoods and ply so I can start creating.
Cheers.

Thanks for the welcome everyone.
I’m planning on starting with some more basic items like chopping boards, serving trays and small boxes while I build my skills and get comfortable with more advanced techniques. Would like to ultimately build some speakers, turntable plinths and maybe something like this;
Mountainscape Cabinet Build (For Sale!) - YouTube
but that seems like a long way off.
