    Default Clubs in Melbourne?

    Hi All,

    A while ago I read in the local paper about a woodturning club / association in Hoppers Crossing. I can't find any info about it now.

    Doe anyone here know of it, if not a club close by that I could join and get some help and feedback from more experienced turners?

    thanks in advance - GC

    So does the Altona club have a woodturners branch/division?

    Or is it just woodwork of many types?

    I think that you will find that most clubs have a turner or two who you could speak with. There are also plenty of interclub meetings arranged that expose you to other woodworkers and turners around the area.

    How about .....
