Melbourne, Australia
was born into this industry.great grandfather, grandfather, father, uncle all in various aspects of Furniture , timber and board plus other techniques.My training started as a boy to earn pocketmoney sweeping around machines, helping in all aspects of timber work, upholstery, boatbuilding (timber) and developed into most aspects of the relevant trades.i can honestly say i didnt realise it was training, i thought being in factories, pulling out nails from used materials was common place. Didnt everyone have a steam box for timber in the backyard?? this industry has become second nature to me. Basically, if i walk through a factory, see the equipment i understand what you can build there.
