    Default Hi from Tassie

    Hi Woodies.
    My name is Rob and I am based on the north west coast of Tasmania. I have been an active member of the north west woodcraft guild for about 20 years and run a home based woodcraft business. This is my first plunge into being a member of a forum although I have used them from time to time to glean helpful information.

    Hi Treecycle.

    Thanks for the welcome.
    I produce a range of products from Tasmanian minor species timbers. My souvenir range includes smaller items including fridge magnets, coasters, rulers, key tags, bottle openers. I use a laser engraver to add designs relevant to the market.
    I also produce a range of standard and custom products that are more of a gallery quality. These include boxes with veneer inlay images of animals and birds. Other boxes have engraved images. I also use a cnc to produce carvings for adding to boxes.
    The custom orders I produce cover a wide range of different techniques from conventional joinery through to carving, turning and even handmade intarsia.
    In time I will post some images after I have figured out how and where to do this.

    Thanks for the interest.

    Thanks for the comprehensive description of your works. Sounds like plenty of variety in your offerings and I look forward to seeing some of them when you get your head around how to post your photos. It's easy when you know how You can have a bit of a read here.
