Hello from Tasmania

[art wanderlust]

Retired and with a ton of time in my hands I am looking for a 2016 project and a TD will compliment very well my other interests , nature photography and exploring.
This forum have fantastic pool of knowledge and very friendly members and I am looking forward to contribute on it.
I do not have experience in working with wood, steel is my game. I built 6 38 & 44 footer steel yachts to the stage to be ready to fit so I hope thet that experience will help me a bit.
I am looking on a traditional shape TB about 10' (3 m) long by about 5 to 6 f ( 1.5 to 1. wide.
The new Cub and the Campster plans are close to what I am have in mind with a roof shape a bit different.
Perhaps something like the Steampunk design?

See you in the forum
Cheers

Thank you for your comment, we have something in common, I live to cook in my cast iron pots when camping or at home, the food it is much nicer when cooking on them.
