It's a tough life fellas... :q

I would be interested in this as well actually.

This one is a dual movement. Can switch between 7 day...

Thanks for the offer Rod. That would be fantastic. :)

I did find an old post with some links to PDF files. A couple of them didn't work but the others were very interesting.

On a whim I stopped at an antique shop; on a whim I bought a Sher Shopmate. The wife saw the smile on my face when I saw it so she didn't argue... until we had to carry it down 50 steps. :doh:
...

Yep, he's a very generous person. I have made a few things out of his patterns now. They're excellent for beginners such as myself. :)

Couldn't agree more. Looks fantastic.

This was a gift for my fiancé for our two year anniversary. We said no spending money on gifts so I got her on a technicality and built one out of some scrap wood I had laying around. Not sure what...

I was passing by Berry yesterday and ended up browsing the markets. I was on the lookout for some tools when I spotted this. It immediately grabbed my attention. The SWMBO was very impressed as well....

Is it Xmas again!? :)

Enjoy all the new toys.

Very sharp performer there John. This is one lens I have never had the opportunity to purchase. I always wanted the Canon 70-200 though which is why I haven't bought one. Just too expensive! :B

Wouldn't want to compare myself with the very unfortunate folks up north (I'm from Sydney) but I woke up to some flooding in my house this morning. Took the day off work to clean up. As it happens,...

Love it. It's a great design.

Thanks for that link. Was a very interesting read.

Welcome aboard Ryan :-)

All the best with the lens. :2tsup:

Looking good Andy. :)

Your photos are excellent to begin with. Any improvements will come with investment in better lighting. Larger light boxes to soften the highlights as they are quiet distracting.

Your presentation...

That's a great photo :2tsup: I love reflection shots and you've done well here.

Your photos are great composition wise. They just appear a bit too flat. Add some contrast and you're good....

I was comparing bandsaws recently, by visiting CT and H&F, and this one (W4224) looked much better than the others in that sub $1k price range.

Very nice John. That first one has a HDR quality to it.

Let me put my critic hat on - Love the tones in the second one. Very calming and warm and the layers of the background add a perfect sense...

Thanks again John.




Very true John. However, I have also read many times that to be able to break the rules, you first must learn them. :;

Now go out there and shoot into the sun. I make a...

Thanks for the compliments all.

Robson, I really enjoy b&w but mostly with film. I don't think I'll be chasing cash as it's just a hobby for me. Best to keep it fun. Besides, there is so much...

Hi all,

I dabble in a bit of photography for fun. I shoot in both digital and film and have developed some of my film at home for fun. I haven't had a lot of time to shoot recently and certainly...

Welcome aboard Mal. Lots to learn around here. All the best to you.

I was doing some searching earlier today and I found that one you mentioned and also this one which is also in Launceston.

Thanks for all the tips everyone....

About bloody time. We've been waiting for you.

Welcome :-)

Beautiful truck. Well done.

Is it hard to spray small parts?

Who would have thought I'd be using floss for woodworking... :U

Thanks all.

It got a touch hot in the shop today. I hope you're all staying cool and safe in this heatwave.

Finished a little bird today. Again, no finish applied. Mainly just for practise on...

No problem. :-)

I've visited the Peakhurst Mr Plywood store and they did have a good range of ply but no Baltic Birch. In fact, they didn't know of Baltic Birch but to their credit they did try to...

Sorry, not sure about that. I've only purchased the standard boards they sell.

Shipping was reasonable to Sydney for others that might be interested.

Try these guys for Baltic Birch plywood.

Thanks Brett. I'm not too fussed about the daisy as I know I will make another one soon so I'll leave this as is.

The daisy and light globe is designed by Steve Good. You can find his free scroll...

After what seems like a very long time I have been able to set up a temporary workshop and dip my toes again.

I picked up a couple of designs by Steve Good and went to work. I was so wrapped up in...

Have you unchecked the 'receive emails from administrators' check box in your settings? Might have something to do with the notifications not being sent.

Beautiful sweeping lines. I really like the design.

How well does it keep time? I know it's not about accuracy but it's always nice if it works well.

Hi Julian,

To stop these messages go to Settings (top right) then click on General Settings (left hand menu) and uncheck the Receive Email from Administrators box.

Thanks guys. :)

I received my blade and Incra 100HD Mitre and despite the misspelled product name on their packaging it works as advertised.

The blade lines up with the mitre slots and the...

I was skim reading your post and read, 'I did my time for a bit of shop lifting'. At about this point I slowed down and read it again.

Welcome aboard. :-)

That's a great space and a great start. Look forward to seeing what you'll make now that you've got a shop.

Enjoy!

They're called scientists. :U

They actually counted every branch and measured them to come up with a figure for how many cubic feet which was 54,000. I guess that's bigger than your average gum...

Just a heads up to check out the latest issue (Dec 2012) of National Geographic. The cover story is about the world's largest trees; and more specifically about The President, a giant Sequoia in...

You go ahead and justify where you spend your money however you like. Don't for one minute be a sucker and believe that Australian businesses are out to rip you off though. The amount of coverage...

Must be that time again. :D


So ahh, where do you get your hardwood from in Sydney?

Excuse my ignorance but I'm curious.

How much do you stand to save by doing it this way over buying ready timber?

Seems like a lot of work and a long delay before you can build. Fair enough if...

I have also used Price USA with great success in the past. Would have no hesitation in using them again. Their fees have actually reduced since the last time I used them as well which is good to see.

Hi Robert,

I believe the editing is disabled after a certain time. Not exactly sure when the editing is disabled but if you can't see the edit button (see attached image) then you can't do it....

Good news Steve. :U

Simon, for future reference, you can subscribe to the whole forum (section) and it will appear in your Tapatalk under More > Favourites. This is what I have done until a fix...

Thanks for that feedback.

I have read about the thin kerf ones not being as stable. Guess I can only give it a try. I bought the blade as it was pretty cheap and it also came with a $30 gift...

The plan is to build close off the whole sub-floor and possibly divide it in two down the road.

Last night I ordered a 10" blade. A Freud Premier Fusion with a thin kerf. I think it'll make a nice...

It's now accessible from the top menu and yes, it's not a part of the main forum.
