I will keep searching for a used table saw. A friend of mine has a Triton table saw that he said I can use for now. How do you cut angle cuts with the circular saw? I am referring to the edge.

SO anybody out there, can you point me in the right direction on what I should look for in a table saw please? I was just goi...

I have used other plywoods before and they cant take as much of a beating and stay durable as the BB. I will be applying a coating of Easytread on the finished product to make sure they remain abrasion proof.

Does Handypine cut to size any of their lumber?

I know Bunning does but the Bunnings at Marion can't cut a straight edge for some reason.

thanks everyone. I have emailed the 2 companies and hopefully next week I will get a reasonable quote so I can get started building.

I sent them an email so thanks.

They look like a wholesale company so I am not sure I can buy directly from them. They say you can buy there products at Bunning's and Miter 10 an other places. I have not seen BB though at Bunning's nor Miter 10. But hopefully Gunnersons will be able to help .

Hi my name is David Chrapla. I am new here and trying to find the equivalent in properties to the woods I need for a bass but they must all be indigenous to Australia.
