My woodworking club (Lake Woodies) put some of their toys on display today before sending them off. We make toys for disadvantaged kids in Australia and Timor.
Here's a short video of the toys:

Hi Clarence1 Top effort by you fellers up there on the lake its great time of the year to be giving. :2tsup::2tsup::2tsup:
The toys look first class I am sure there are going to be lots of happy kids in Australia and Timor.
Tell me is the RAAF still helping with freight or did that end some years ago I know your club has been doing this for some time and its great stuff.
Could you tell me the name of that piece of music I have heard it before but cannot think of the name I would like to down load off I tunes you fellers have a Merry Xmas
colbra :)
The music is Handel's Fireworks (Handel’s Royal Fireworks Music is the full title I think). I am not sure how the toys get to where they are going actually. I will have to ask. I just joined the club in July.

So the club hasn't disbanded always loved going to their website and checking out the latest.
:~ How ever for some reason they constantly keep changing the website name :doh:
Thanks for the video.:2tsup:
G'Day Mike John,
What a great effort; must be a top bunch of bolkes & I'm sure ladies seeing the covers on the cradles.
Cheers, crowie
They are a great bunch of blokes and ladies. All sorts of experience. We have four ladies that I have seen come along regularly and yesterday we had about 15 blokes. The ladies do scroll sawing, drilling and other things and they did a lot of the painting. One is making a harp for herself.
We made it on NBN news last night. The video here only works for me in Internet Explorer:

Wow, I miss the regional news broadcasts.....
I wish the Sydney media would do some "GOOD NEWS" focus like that one.
