    Default WTB - urgent!

    I have all the tools, space and wood, but I'm desperately lacking a few last things: enthusiasm, time and patience.

    I went to bunnings and I couldn't find any. Bunnings didn't sell "patience", in fact it was the opposite - they seemed to specialise in frustration only. I thought these core components of finer woodwork would be readily available at better stores, but alas not.

    They used to be partly sold at woolworths in the form of "beer", but this motivational unit has not been replenished after an workshop accident. The product was dangerous and the manufacturers should put a label on the side! "DO NOT DRIVE OR USE MACHINERY". I can recommend the product as it allows long hours, but quality diminishes rapidly, so it isn't suitable.

    If anyone has any of the things I need **spare**, I would be glad to swap....say for a nice catcus, lawnmower or MDF offcuts.

    Mate, I hear you and I can empathize. I would love to help but I am right out of time and patience. I have plenty of enthusiasm but I cant spare you any, I need all Iv'e got to try to somehow make up for the deficiency in the other areas.

    Persevere, mate

    I got sick of sitting around doing nothing - so I took up meditation.

    I've got the patience, but right now I can't hand any over because I need it in spades (which can be found at Bunnings). You can probably guess why.

    Ah, what you are talking about is the "rod for your own back".

    They are seemingly handed out almost for free, but often have "buyers remorse". I have PLENTY of that!

    That's curious - I have a bit of that at the moment. Not from the actual goods mind you, just from putting my fingertips in the store to begin with.

    Evanism,

    I find that if you can get a lot of that "Time" stuff.....the patience is thrown in for free. If I have the enthusiasm with a just a tad too little time...the patience goes straight out the window...it's a waste of money.

    Hope you have some luck finding a place that sells all your requirements....me......I'm still looking for that elusive "Ye Olde SKILL Shoppe"....I was told I would find it if I just looked long enough.
