24.01.2022 The weather was (mostly) kind to us today for our little timber framing workshop hosted at Brian and Naomi's place. We got these posts, braces and beam all joined together using traditional mortice and tennon joinery held together with timber pegs. No bolts or Nails! Thanks to everyone who came along.

22.01.2022 The old rough recycled framing timber I've been dressing has found it's way into our new bathroom door. #builder #carpentry #joinery #Huonvalley #retrofittingthesuburbs #retrofit #retrosuburbia #permaculture

19.01.2022 New (Or should I say old) gate for the veggie patch made from salvaged items reclaimed from around the yard and our retrofit. Timber, hinges, latch, wire all given a new lease on life. Only the screws are new. #recycledmaterials #retrofitting #retrofittingthesuburbs #huonvalley #carpenter #builder #permaculture #gate #garden

11.01.2022 I'm a bit excited! Website and Blog are now live. http://www.retrofittingtasmania.com.au/blog/

09.01.2022 Glue up time! More recycled timber coming together into this laundry benchtop with sink cutout. #recycledtimber #permaculturebuilder #producenowaste #retrofittingthesuburbs #retrofit #huonvalley

08.01.2022 Two hand tools that I love to use. The stanley No7 jointing plane and No6 smoothing plane. The large No7 is designed for dressing the edges of boards so they are dead straight for gluing up into panels and benchtop like I'm working on here. I also find it great for getting benchtop true and flat by working across the surface on the diagonal in one direction and then back the other way on the opposite diagonal. The No4 is a great all rounder for cleaning up joinery and leavin...g a beautiful smooth surface that often needs no sanding to finish it off. The key to making them fun to use is keeping them sharp at all times. #woodworking #handtools #stanleyno7 #stanleyno4 #huonvalley

07.01.2022 Diamond in the rough! Dressing up some old hardwood studs from our retrofit to become the new laundry benchtop. And the planer shavings become garden paths. #recycledtimber #retrofittingthesuburbs #producenowaste #zerowaste #permaculturebuilder #permaculture @ Glen Huon, Tasmania, Australia
