To our valued customers. We are keeping everyone safe and your projects moving. We can offer contactless product viewing and collection but customers must contact us by phone so we can discuss customers need, confirm if we can help and then make an appointment for the customer to come to the store.
This process has been working just fine, however we have had to turn customers away who have not called to make an appointment.
At The Hobbyist Timber Supply Store (THTSS) we love seeing what our Hobbyists have made. Mark and Matt are both local resin casters who regularly visit THTSS to purchase timber and resin for their upcoming projects.
These projects include river tables, chopping boards and even chess boards! Scroll to see their photos.
The Open Day 2020 is an event highlighting the products and services available at The Hobbyist Timber Supply Store (THTSS) but also to highlight our local Hobbyists, Crafts people and students who have supported the store being given an opportunity to display their work.

At The Hobbyist Timber Supply Store we are big advocates of sustainability. For the past 30 years timber milling and urban salvage has been a big part of our operations.
Working alongside local arborists, we remove trees which have been authorised for council removal including fallen, storm damaged or trees impacting new developments, save them from the chipper and mill them into furniture grade timbers.
