Greetings all.
It has been along while since I have written a post.
Tonight that changes

I have just watched Peta Credlin on TV and her doco on "The Daniel Andrews Cult"

Here is the link if you want to watch it

https://www.skynews.com.au/opinion/peta-credlin/watch-in-full-peta-credlin-investigates-the-cult-of-daniel-andrews/video/e82be96616f95770a9c3bd7c8eea9ef3

I have watched this and cannot remain silent . I will be paying hard earned money to boost this post , so that as many as possible can see it. Use your brain and take the time to watch it

If you vote Labor at the next state election in Victoria on Nov 27 You must be totally brainless.

I may loose a few clients over this, I may loose a few friends but it needs to be done, needs to be said and needs to be seen

Daniel Andrews is the worst premier in our State's history. Total corruption, total megalomania, and total abuse of power

As Lord Acton said back in his day
"Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men…"

Daniel Andrews has to go

Your grand children will be paying for his abuse of power

Thank you

Greetings All,

It's Time to write something and to share my most recent creation

The client in far north QLD, sent me a photo, and asked "can you make this". Of course I replied yes.

God what a journey

I asked him to draw me a layout plan and I commenced making it. This thing has done my head in

He wanted a table, for he and his mates to play a game called Dungeons and Dragons. A games table was to be made.
His picture, I think, was of something once made in the US that cost vast sums, ( I now know why)

Please look at all the photos, see the complexity and the intricacy of the making. I even managed to get the grain of the wood running in the right directions. I'm still waiting on the felt to lay in the middle panel, (help up by customs I'm told)

It is one of my most challenging creations I have ever had and I feel that I should share.
I hope you enjoy and thanks for looking and if you do, thanks for sharing
I wish you all a wonderful day. AA

Greetings all,
We're certainly living in interesting times and I believe soon we'll return to normal but our lives will be changed and so will the way we see things.

I'm reflecting on my place in the world. I am indeed very fortunate.

For the last 30 plus years I have worked from home in my own space, my fabulous work shop, where I've followed my passion. I've made some magnificent pieces of furniture, I've restored some glorious antiques and I've been supported by an amazing number of truly fabulous clients. Thank you all

I am still here, I'm still working, still making, still restoring and still enjoying every moment of it all and I'm only a phone call or message away if you need my services (0419348083)

Just for fun. here is a link to my Instagram account which shows some recent "modern " creations. Some folk are surprised that I can make furniture like this You might see something you like. I can make you anything you want, just ask

Please stay safe, keep the 1.5 metre rule and WASH your hands
Love and light to all and thanks for reading. AA

Just for fun on New Year's Day

A young lady I know is getting married soon and she asked if I could make a pair of ring boxes for their wedding

A simple cutting from a lemon scented gum, about 15 minutes work and have a look at the result

I reckon they're pretty nice. Hope you like them Sophie. Thanks for looking, AA

Finished at last.

It's been a long haul and a bit stressful but the 40 dining chairs for Ormond College are completed and will be delivered on Friday (hope it's cooler)

I thought some of you might be interested in seeing the end result.
A great project and some fun along the way

Thanks for looking
AA

So the client said to me. "can you make a games table, which I can also use as a dining table "?

"My friends and I want the best games table we can get"

He was a young bloke, it turns out I knew his Mum and his maternal Grandfather

What a great young bloke. He told me his budget and I replied with that line from "The Castle", ....... about dreaming

After much, (very much) discussion, drawings, negotiation and him coming to the workshop, we sorted it out and we both compromised

In the photos you can see the result.

The top removes for the games. The drawers and slides come in and out as required. There for the games, gone for dinner.
The metal cups for the dice, his uncle made, and when he wants a formal dining table, everything shuts up, the top goes back on and hey, it's Christmas dinner

One exciting project,for me, a hell of a lot or work but all for a beaut young bloke who actually knew what he wanted and wasn't scared to pay for it.

I'll just say, thanks AK, he knows who he is,
