Hi there all. I have been a tinkerer whilst I was full time employed and have not moved to full time retirement, with the luxury of time in the workshop. My preference is for hand tools and traditional techniques as I have time to enjoy the journey. I found YouTube to be an inspiration on many areas but I have a great respect for those who have done it themselves, so will keenly follow posts of interest.
I have never used a forum of this nature before, appears interesting.
G'Day & Welcome to the Great Southern Land and to a top forum "Lloyd".

You'll find a heap of helpful & knowledgeable blokes & ladies on the forum and for most very willing to assist.
