G'day from Melbourne, how are you all? I'm new to the forums and, to be honest, new to woodworking - i've always had an interest in timber and products that you can make from it but never had the impetus to dip the big toe in... now i do! and it actually incorporates one of my other hobbies - beekeeping - i'm looking at making my own beehives from exotic timbers and then oiling or lacquering them to show off their natural timber colours/grains. So i'm on a learning curve and look forward to being able to discuss woodworking with those who have more experience than i do...
