I'd suggest call around to any local cabinetmakers/joiners and see if they're willing to sell you stock. Bunnings usually sells some sort of dressed hardwood but it can often be a little warped or...

Non-correctable eyesight issue. To get a licence they judge your eyesight based on your ability to read small letters on a wall despite very little to do with driving actually requiring you to...

Hey all, I'm looking for some advice. I love woodworking as a hobby and am interested in doing something similar as a full time job, however I cannot drive and getting a licence isn't possible. I...

I'm making a sand pit for my sister's kid out of merbau decking but am unsure of what a suitable finish would be for it. My main concern is the finish seeping into the sand as I've heard that many...

I need a super cheap thicknesser on short notice and was wondering if anyone here had first-hand experience with their thicknesser. Obviously it's going to be pretty bleh, but will it at least be...

Sherwood uses the good SHELIX style cutter heads while the smaller Carbatec machines use the inferior segmented spiral cutter heads. If you want to give Sherwood another go then I'd consider them the...

Plywood Suppliers Perth, WA - Ply Supply

Noticed this company pop up a while ago and they seem to sell furniture grade plywood a lot cheaper than anywhere else in the state does. I'm wondering if...

I believe the riving knife should be thinner than the blade kerf but thicker than the blade plate.

Sawstop CTS has been great so far but I'm very much a beginner so don't have much experience with different size/quality saws to give much of a useful opinion. As far as the price goes yeah it does...

Beginner with not much experience with plywood here. American woodworkers seem to go on and on about using Baltic Birch for everything but it seems pretty expensive to get something similar over here...

Oh I didn't realize that. I do feel like I'd want a dust extractor at some point, I have a Sawstop CTS coming soon and would like a jointer in the future too, so something to keep in mind, but I'll...

I would still want to buy a dust extractor though? Basically everywhere I search says it's highly recommended for a thicknesser or jointer. Or if you think I don't need one then I would just not get...

The DeWalt 735 costs 3x as much as the one I'm looking at...

I don't know too much about Thicknessers aside from everyone says to get a helical head machine, but those are a bit out of my budget for now. I was thinking of getting a Sherwood 13" Standard...

I checked them both out in person on my recent search and I didn't really notice much difference between them in how they looked or felt, although in saying that I looked at them on different days so...

I'll take it

Massive thanks for this offer. I'm a little far away from Greenmount but my brother is in Mount Helena so I could probably get him to pick it up, if not I'll try find the time to make...

Ok, I'm down to 3 choices of what I'm going to get, but any other suggestions are welcome.

1. Sherwood Jobsite: $1000
2. Sherwood Contractors: $1500
3. Sherwood 10" Hybrid: $1650

I know...

Noticed today on the Timbecon site that the Sherwood jobsite saw is made in Taiwan yet all their other saws are made in China. Seems odd to me, any idea why this is?

Haha yeah I am a bit. Just so many things I want to buy but not enough money to go around.

Looking at cheap saws on marketplace really says a lot about what sort of people they were designed for....

How much can you really regret a $100 experiment though? If it's usable then you've saved $1000+ and if it's truly horrible you throw it back on marketplace for $50 and it's lesson learned.


...

It really is frustrating the hell out of me... I'm at the point where I'm so fed up with all the confusion around everything that I want to just go grab a $100 Ozito off marketplace and build my own...

Wondering if anyone has tried this out or has any opinions on it.

It looks tempting but at the same time spending $1000 on a clone/rebadge from a seemingly non-existent brand feels scary when you...

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but when I see woodworking YouTubers make cheap projects like workbenches or shop furniture they always talk about building it cheap with "construction lumber" or...

I'm a beginner looking to buy my first table saw (also my first powered saw in general) but I'm really stuck on what to purchase. When I ask around online or look at reviews I see so many conflicting...
