    Hi Frankie and welcome to the forum. You may be better off asking your question regarding your Triton in the Triton threads. Here
    Reality is no background music.
    Cheers John

    Thumbs up

    G'day Frankie and welcome to the show.

    Lots of good woodworkers in Perth so you should get plenty of personal help, if needed.

    Welcome to the forum.

    I started on the Tirton about three years ago. Still using it as something prevents me from getting rid of it. Space and Money.

    Post in the Tirton area and I am sure someone will be able to give you a hand.
