    Default Name Puzzles

    I've a heap (500+?) of unfinished Masonite name puzzles looking for a good home. I'd happily donate them to a not for profit organisation or Men's Shed. If you're a business, we'd need to look at a donation or something. There is also a number of children's puzzles, unfinished and painted.
    Mum had a small Puzzle business, Annys Puzzles, she bought a number of patterns and equipment off a fella Mr Smithers in Richmond. He made these great kids puzzles, hand painted that some of you may know.
    We cleaned out mums house some years ago, I saved all this from the skip. Too good to throw out!
    There is also a 24" Woodfast scroll saw, I've listed on Gum Tree

    New to the forum, ill try and work out how to post some pictures

    Try Berwick woodworking club on the Eastern side of Melbourne. They specialise in making toys for underprivileged children, which they freely give away.

    I am sure they would gladly accept any donation of puzzles etc.

    They really do a great job!

    PM me if you can’t find their contact details and I will forward their details to you.

    Scroll saw sold today.
    More to point, swapped it for a 24 inch x 2inch linisher.

    Spent most of the day helping to get a Pratt and Whitney copy lathe going. Mighty fine bit of gear. Sorry photos from phone won’t load.
