Hi all from sunny Queensland. I like to tinker in my shed with a bit of wood turning/work and also a bit of metal work. Like most blokes it's my escape from the everyday grind. I would welcome suggestions/comments/advice on my work. Cheers

There is a dedicated sub-section of wood turning. Two ways of accessing is via the drop down menu on the top left of the page or via this link, http://www.woodworkforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=8

There is also a working with wood show on this weekend. As you are a member you can get a discount on the entry ticket. http://www.woodworkforums.com/showthread.php?t=183548

Or if you are really keen you can help out at the forum stand for an hour or so. Really easy just hand out flyer and talk about your knowledge of the forum. http://www.woodworkforums.com/showthread.php?t=183551 Of course you might be limited in that regards but that never stopped others. :U
