    Default Wanted - Someone to make a chopping board

    Gday all,

    I have just moved to Melbourne and had to sell all my woodworking gear and now the wife wants a chopping board made.

    Wondering if someone would be willing to make one for some $$ (negotiable)???

    If you are interested in helping, let me know.

    Default The Board.

    Hi Krico,
    Not sure where you are, but maybe you could find a Woodies Club ( But most are near breakup time for this year ) & the same goes for The Mens Shed.
    Look under " Council of Woodwork Clubs " & " Mens Shed Assoc. of Aust.".

    Don't take this the wrong way, but it is easier, to give your area, rather than just Melb. & then you can get the proper help you need.
    Regards,
    issatree.

    You could check out the weekend craft markets particularly the one at Flemington Racecourse. I have not been there for some time but am pretty certain there was someone selling wood products including cutting boards.

    How about a drive down to Geelong this weekend for Barwon Valley Woodwrights exhibition and sale at the Masonic Hall Regent st Belmont, Sure you will find some chopping boards and other goodies. John.

    There is a stall at the Wednesday night Suzuki Markets (Queen Vic markets at night) that sells chopping boards (among other things).

    Red Hill market or Emu Plains market at Balnarring. Both on the Mornington Peninsula and good value for individual chopping boards.

    Thanks for the replies. I'll search for where these places are and try and get around to them. Lucky I have the Navman I think.

    I'll have to Google them and see where they all are. I am living in the south-east suburbs.
