New old member from Perth
Hi my name is Darryn
I was a member of the woodwork forums for many years but since starting a family have had little time for that or metalworking.
My father owned his own light engineering, toolmaking and metal stamping business so I grew up around machinery and think I had my first unsupervised play on a hercus at about age 10. But for some reason decided not to follow his footsteps and became a refrigeration mechanic instead. Actually I did think of getting into the metalworking side towards the end when purchased a cnc wire edm machine but he was in the process of getting out of it by then.
These days I'm wanting to get back into metalworking a little more and have just become the owner of a Sheraton model A that my dad picked up as a shed toy but ended up not being able to keep.
Cheers
Darryn
