    Default G'day my name is Dennis a Fitter & Turner and adapting those skills to woodworking

    I have been 40 yrs with current employer and still working (67 years old and still enjoy). 35 yrs have been managing M&E workshops.
    Outside of that I enjoy compters & wood working.woodworking you can apply your trade skills and expect quality outcomes.Basic woodworking equipment is far cheaper than that applied to my trade. the work is different and something different.
    It is also nice to be able to have the knowledge and skill putting jigs and some equipment manufactured to enhanse and get more out of the wood working equipment on offer.
