spare time in Adelaide
Hey folks,
Drove over to Adelaide for work this week and found out I will have a bit of spare time during the days, so was wondering if there were any timber yards/woodworking stores worth looking at? Being from Melbourne, I won't bother with carbatec as my guess is they are the same in every state, but if there is a pops shed or Carroll's equivalent around I'd love to drop passed and grab some items.
I dont mind a drive out of the cbd if needed to find the gems...
Cheers
Gab

If you want to look at machinery then I recommend Leda machinery down by the airport. Or there's Woodsmith but it's very small. That at rose water I think about 20 mins from CBS on old port road
The fact remains, that 97% of all statistics are made up, yet 87% of the population think they are real.

From what I understand the Malls Balls (sorry spheres) have just had a polish and could be worth a look .......
