About Me

My photo
The Village Woodworker
Telegraph Point, NSW, Australia
I have always loved woodworking, especially with the tools used in the 19th and 20th centuries before power tools became commonplace. The tools themselves fascinate me, and I admire the skill and imagination that went into their manufacture, as well as their beauty. "Some old things are lovely... warm still with the life of forgotten men who made them" (D H Lawrence)
