New guy from Canada
Hi everyone, i'm new here, i've been lurking for woodworking ideas here since may but was lacking english typing skills at the time and was too shy to post. The amount of sharing is incredible here and so seems to be the friendship.
I'm a hobbyist guitar builder and have built quite a few things related to lutherie and other stuff, i took some ideas from Mr Sturdee and friends to help me build my drum sander and some other jigs that will help me in my field. Thanks Sturdee!
One of your members here is also a member at the OLF where i am also a member, his name is Martin aka Kiwigeo, Hi Martin buddy!
I look forward to learn more from you guys and share pics of my work with ya all, i gotta say that Aussie people are the friendliest people on this planet and i'm very happy to be here!
Thanks
Serge

Hi Serge!
I haven't been a member long and am living in Germany but I wanted to be one of the first to say Gudday and bienvenue!
I play the guitar and I'm willing to admit I'm really, really, really crap at it. Nonetheless, it gives me a lot of pleasure and is a great way to take a 5 minute break from the computer every half hour.
I'm guessing you're better at building them than I am at playing them so I look forward to a few pics.
DamienIs it wrong to be in love with a sawbench?

Welcome Serge: good to see you've de-lurked.
Now ... what about some pics: shed, past projects, a sunset from your house...?Those are my principles, and if you don't like them . . . well, I have others.

translation
Standard exclamation! It has been noted that more canadians are being seen in this country and on this board.
Requests pictures of yourself, your dog and your tools.
States that we Australians don't get upset by residents of other countries joining our forum, but gives a warm greeting.
Repeats request for pictures.
Recomend you contact Bruce & Tim who make gituars in your country.
They will be helpfull and friendly.
Reminds you that its your turn to buy the beer and provide the food.
His prefered beverage is Crown Larger.
Standard greeting.Any thing with sharp teeth eats meat.
Most powertools have sharp teeth.
People are made of meat.
Abrasives can be just as dangerous as a blade.....and 10 times more painfull.
