    Default Hi

    My name is Geoff and I am based in Melbourne. I am a retired Public Servant and are currently playing around with wooden Model ships.

    With my model ship hobby we use a wide range miniaturized tools such as table saws. Some strange tools for clamping like bulldog clip, rubber bands, a glue dropper may a small bottle miniaturised drill sets, I think my smallest bit is 0.3mm

    I have always been interested in all type of woodwork as my father was. I am looking for to see your build logs and contributing to the forum.


    Cheers
    Geoff

    I agree. My favourite are just varnished with clear Satin.

    We are currently building a cross section on our forum as a group build so will be learning off one another's mistakes The good thing about forums is thould only positive critism on how do a part or haw to fix a part.

    Cheers
