Do you need a DIY wood working shop?

Post by davery » August 19, 2019, 6:08 pm

I always wanted a good wood working shop with all the great gear. I found one.. Don't need to buy all the expensive gear. Plus they have the experts to help you with your project. (and clean up afterwards). I was buying some pallet wood at Home Mart (beside Home Pro) for 30 baht a kilo, and I was talking to the boss Mr. Chanthong. He said I could come and use his machinery and they'd help me out with whatever.. YES!

I suggested paying him by the hour.. anyway, I'm sure you could make your own arrangement.They are pretty quiet, so I'm sure costs would be favourable. Mr. Chanthong is there every day, and the big woodworking area is on the left side of Home Mart.

Go have a look.. Very interesting!

Now that is some good info for some new people. Have not been to Home Mart in many years, last time they seem to have gone bare bones.

Could have found a lot of use for that table saw, years back.

In my posts all fees and requirements are the standard R&R but TIT and a brown envelope can make incredible changes YMMV.

I went to this place today as I needed a couple of strips of wood cutting to size
I met Mr Chanthong and he did this job for me for free
Thanks again, very kind
