Since i didnt want to take over a thread about new irons. Here is the old man thread, for projects that you wish to start or have started.

My two of three projects that i have yet to get off the ground...and i still have plenty of time..

1. Corvette stingray 1969 (The classic american shape)

3. Blackwood/blackbutt/mohogany flooring with inlaid fencing (rapier) layout.

(Complete)

2. Restoration of a late 1800 Heiron and Smith Billard Table. It was my year 12 project

I'd love to do up an old car, but I don't have the expertise or the money.
If I did, I'd probably do a '59 Corvette.

I'm about to start a new project at home: building a bar. I've got an empty room set aside to hold it when it is complete. I've got the design in my head. I just need to build the damn thing.
