Hello up there! I'm down in Tassie!
Hi all,
I'm Tom from southern Tasmania.
I've been mucking about with metalwork in small bits of knife making, blacksmithing, casting and a bit of welding (poor welds). Have been working with hand tools, a drill press and my belt grinder, plus a little Chinese mini lathe til my container arrived with most of a workshop I bought from a bloke who bought a deceased estate.
Scored a Sheraton ARM model lathe, an RDM350 Mill and plenty of tooling.
The organising has begun but it's a long haul!
I've recently retired so I now have a bit more time to put my grade ten metal work and too much you tube into practice!
Anyone else in southern Tas?
Cheers,
Tom

Welcome to a TOP FORUM. Nice haul of tools too. I'm sure others from the Apple Isle will drop by and say G'day.
