The Bunnings Workshop community can help with your home improvement projects.
Welcome to your Workshop. It is great to have you as a member of the community. We encourage you to say hello and introduce yourself.
Please reply to this post and tell us a bit about yourself. Whatever information you feel comfortable sharing is fine.
You might like to tell us about your current D.I.Y. and garden projects, your work, your passions, your hobbies, your dreams, what you struggle with, what you hope to learn from this community, and/or your favourite ice cream flavour.
And for something truly revealing about yourself - tell us what you call a barbecued sausage served on a single piece of bread.
We look forward to your post and getting to know you. Thanks for joining the discussion.

Hi Vanessa,
Welcome to the workshop community.
I used to sould like you about 35 years ago ha-ha
I too rode horses, showed them in western, harness etc...had a ball at the time, spent an obscene amount of money on them too as my family used to attest to as do your family about Bunings lol
I now live on a farm and have beef cattle and love it.
Look forward to hearing more about what you are doing.
Cheers,
Barbara
Hi John is it?

Look forward to some before and after photo's if you have any.
Cheers,
Barbara
Thanks for introducing yourself @Johnnynl. You have fantastic experience and knowledge to share. I'm sure the Workshop community is going to learn a lot from you. I hope you also get plenty of ideas and inspiration from other community members. Looking forward to seeing what you have done with your country home. It sounds wonderful. Perhaps you'd like to start a new discussion and share some photos?
Thanks again,
Jason
Hi Vanessa (@Robessa),
Welcome to Workshop. We're really happy to have you join the community. You'll find plenty of like-minded people here who share the same passions.
It would be great to see some of your projects. Perhaps you could post some pictures on the gallery?
Thanks again for introducing yourself.

Hi All, I have a lot of hobbies from wood and metal work to leadlight/stained glass I am also a avid fisherman with my own boat, all of which keep me busy. But I always have time for D.I.Y. and I am a compulsive tinkerer. My latest projects are my new workshop 7.5 x 10.5 x 5.5 with a mezzanine, all up I have 140 square mtrs of floor area, which I am in the process of setting up. I am getting into ride-on lawn mowers in that I am chopping up a few different brands and taking the best to construct what I hope will be the ultimate ride-on mower but time will tell. I like to go fishing and when I can't get on the water I repair or make my own rods, or keeping my boat up to my liking with small ideas and changes. I am recently retired and only wish for a 30 hour day, maybe even more. Anyway I will not bore you all to death as I am sure you all have things to do other than read about my wants, needs and passions. I have included a few pics, if you think I can help in any way please ask I will be only too happy to help with your projects, so if it doesn't work out you can blame me when you are trying to explain to your better half.
Thanks, Eric AKA (Rusty-Saw).

Hi, Everyone
My name is Geoff, I am a retired 62 young male, I love working in wood and allthough I don't consider myself a craftsman I do enjoy using my hands and making things.
I look forward to being part of the workshop community
