Weclome to the site.
I am from Canada. Where in NSW are you? I lived in Spit Junction just outside Sydney for about a year (43 years ago when I first got married)
Love NSW as we drove our Holden all over the place.
Look forward to seeing some pics

Hi Wock,
Did you know that there is also an Australian forum?
SCROLLERS FORUM - Woodwork Forums
You could also email the Harris company at: [email protected]
They might be able to help also.

my Father and I came back winter of 69'.
I used to go camping quite a lot as a youmg lad then of between 11 and 13, went to Orange once by train camping from Sydney. Lived in East Hills, Nharwee(sp) and Beverly Hills.
Sister and Mother still live over there, but up Newcastle way.
I went back about three years ago and still knew every back street of Sydney and Nharwee, 40 years later. Loved Oz.
