Hi from NSW
Hey everyone,
My name is Tom and I am from NSW and have an interest in all things shed related. Wood, metal, machinery, tools for tools sake.
I am a gumtree lurker and have been slowly buying old Australian made machinery for cheap. I am hoping to have only Australian made machinery where possible. I am also studying to be a wood/metal teacher for high school so want to expand my knowledge as much as possible.
so far I have managed to buy a
tablesaw (Austrec), 12'' jointer (Macson), radial arm saw 'supersaw'(H R Cousins), wood lathe (Woodfast), electric hacksaw (gray & harper),
my most recent purchase is a bandsaw of unknown make, I shall be placing a post in the machinery forum to see if anyone here can ID it.
I am on the hunt for a thicknesser, but the deals have been thin on the ground.
Anyway keen to be part of this community!
