Hi all Australia
« on: September 02, 2014, 09:14:43 PM »
HI all I'm a self admitted hack lol, I'll have a go at almost anything and have the tools to get some of it right. I have too many hobbies cars, hiking, biking and a little photography plus I have kayaks coming for the family too. Ive always liked to make things and if I cam make it an buy the tools for the same price as buying it I will generally have a go. I have made a little portable welding bench and a trolley for my tool box and a bench for my lathe, Ive got a mill coming and half an idea for a trike for a friend formed

Ive added a pic of y little weld bench  I'm quite proud of it but the vice isn't mounted in this pic
