Hi and welcome Will!:)

Hey Will - welcome!!

Where in Cape Town are you? I'm just down the road in the Winelands. Be keen to find out more about what you're doing.

welcome
 

Hi Will

I'm also just up the road in Johannesburg:lol:. Welcome.

Welcome Will, also just a stones throw away.... in Centurion :rolleyes:

Rgrds

Three of you. Sounds like a shapers gathering is in order.

There's a few more than that Kerry!! Many of them aren't forum/computer guys though.

I'm thinking another 'meet is a great idea. How about sometime later this year guys? August/September?

thanks for the welcome
 

thanks for the welcome

great to see I am not completely alone in this part of the world :)

i was generalizing a bit to say i am from Capetown i am a bit more to the east in Strand ,but i suppose if Centurion is a stone throw and Johannesburg is up the road then Strand is a suburb of Capetown .:D

Hi Willem, welcome to the site you may find yourself using you're woodworking skill more than you think whilst metalshaping!. Becides if you have hand skills they can be transfered to other types of work with a little extra knowledge.
