wood machinist is a trade in Aus and not a simple one. But hey try your luck it only hurts once when you lop a finger off.

from your original post it didn't sound like you were a machinist. Expect approx $18-$25/hr as a good one, more if you can program a CNC and run it well. I can give you some contacts if you like. averagehours for joinery/machining is 45-55 at the moment as construction is going bannana's. and I'm missing only one finger and your right takes at least half hour before it really starts hurting.

do the factorys have air con??
can see why my first post was mis-leading,what i meant was done machineing for years now and was just curious to another option for a job that is ok pay, but that you dont have to think too hard ie not a lot of stress!!! is there anything that is in demand that you dont need loads of qualifications for???
