    G'day,G'day ,G'day,

    I hope that's enough G'day's and what a good way to start.


    Ian is my name and I live in Warburton in the beautiful Yarra Valley.

    Somewhat new to forums so hope I do the right thing.

    I have been turning for a few years on and off and quite often ended up on this site when researching for info on turning so thought I'd better join up.

    Have had many other hobbies including RC Planes(still happening) ,Bonsai,Gardening,....... too many to mention other than the last one, a motorised pushbike with a jack shaft.

    Had better get this sent and get back up the shed before my good Lady find's something else foe me to do.

    Ian

    Thanks for the welcome and comments .
    Will try hard to visit and post and keep away from the Good Lady.
    Have had a few years practice at keeping away and trying all my hobbies.

    A very warm welcome to you Ian.

    Warburton is a great town, played tennis against their
    team as a youngster as I grew up in Powelltown.

    Love to see some of your work.

    G'day Allan,
    Not sure if I'm talking to you personally ,not that it matters.
    I used to play table tennis in Powly against the Coles and a few others many years ago.
    I'd have to rack my brain to remember their names tho.No doubt you'd know them.
    Will get some work on when I work out how to.
    Regards Ian

    From here, it's self-explanatory, I think. Browse to your file, then press Upload.
    It will appear as an attachment below your reply.

    Hope this helps, Ian. If not, sing out.

    Edit: I used to get around your area a little when I was young too, dragged around by my step-father who was a mad gold prospector.

    Welcome, Do you still have plans for a Dickie Steel trainer anywhere (not the stick trainer).
    I want to make one for my nephew as I still have the old 2.5's and control lines etc in the garage.
