Came across this little interview its a few years old any ideas who it may be:; Woodturner Interview (http://www.aussiecrafts.com.au/interviews/wood2.html)

[Woodwould]

It sounds like me, but I don't know what "kalantas" is and I don't live in NSW.

[Sawdust Maker]

Stirlo, where are you?
How's the hockey going?

[China]

He used to be a member of the foum, but I beleive he "outgrew" us

[TTIT]

He used to be a member of the foum, but I beleive he "outgrew" usI think it was just a case of the hormones kickin' in - give him a few years, kids, mortgage etc - he'll be back :;

School and hockey commitments meant he had no time nor money for woodwork.

[China]

I was trying to be politicaly correct

[Allen Neighbors]

Yep. Stirlo. :)

[Ozkaban]

Yup. I bought a bunch of his timber off him when he was clearing out his shed. He was off to Canberra to study and play more hockey (probably not in that order:D ) if I remember correctly.

Nice guy to meet, and I'm sure he'll be back someday.

Cheers,
Dave

Whilst you're in Canberra make sure you go for a drive out to the woodworks gallery in Bungendore... really an awesome gallery and there's at least one average woodworker out there too:rolleyes:

[wheelinround]

Surely Corbs you wouldn't tease the young fellow like that he's selling off more pen gear maybe he needs a lathe to turn them on.

[ss_11000]

its on my list of things to do :)

dont worry ray i have a few blanks and kits ready to turn... if i need to make them up ill ask around somewhere :)

[corbs]

I have a couple of lathes and a few mandrels :wink:

[ss_11000]

i'll keep it in mind :)

[Sawdust Maker]

Stirlo
Good luck with the hockey (but I can't work out why you'd want to play in the frosty/icy/bloomin cold conditions in Canberra)
My oldest (nearly 13) scored his first goal on Saturday - only took 47 games :doh:
cost me a pizza :D (or two)

Anyway I think there are a multitude of woodies to visit in the area

[ss_11000]

congrats on the first goal :D they are always good. i cant remember mine though.

na, canberra isnt bad (so far). the competition seems pretty good.

[Ozkaban]

Glad to hear you're going OK in Canberra Stirlo. I was down there last weekend for a short break, and a fortnight earlier for a single day for work. It's a nice spot!

I'm still working my way through that pile of wood I bought off you last year... Still enjoying it :D

Cheers,
Dave
