Hi Tj Hooker Welcome,so you are not the Hooker Estate agent, Sorry about that,If I was you Tj I would take notice of the addvise that has been offered above,If we Knew what area you lived in perhaps some help might come your way ,Personly I would buy a cheap local tool to start with and have a little bit to spend on the bits and piecese,Get started and see how things go, as for the correct wood go round to the second hand shops asked if they have any old real busted up furniture ,have a look in the big road bins I have in the past had some very nice bits of beach and other types that are exelent for model, and believe me I wont buy any thing for my models if I can help it ,it comes from scrap that I find other people throw away ,
Have a look at what was made from my scrap box, stuff collected over time,bits taken from old type writing machines printers and any thing that other people connsider useless and throw away ,this is just what I wanted to sand down wood for my models, I Got the Idear from a good friend of mine a master modeller by the name of Radish. Start a small model and slowly build as you go,Best of luck,
Drum is 130 mmx 90 mm
