These articles are all accessed from the 'Technical' button leading to the page 'Technical Information'.

Timbecon Tools - Everything you need to get wood working.
http://www.timbecon.com.au/
Timbecon was originally started as a retail shop in May 1989 as there was a demand for specialist woodworking tools and supplies in Perth that were not being satisfied. Since its humble beginnings in 1989, Timbecon has grown from being just an independent retailer to becoming one of Australia’s leading woodworking tools suppliers. This has been done by listening to our customers along the way; as we see our customers, together with our staff, as our most important asset.
Since the early days we found there was a need for information on woodworking as well as just the tools themselves. We have dedicated ourselves to providing not only education to our customers on products, but also more importantly techniques so they can get the most out of their tools. We started running Saturday morning demonstrations in the early nineties (before it became a fashionable marketing tool) to enable woodworkers to get together and learn more about woodworking and socialise with other like-minded people.
