In this episode:

• We have two Shedders in the Spotlight this episode. John Kennis and James McMaster join me from Robertson Men’s Shed to talk about a community partnership restoring cricket bats, and in particular one very special bat on its way to the Governor General’s own Admiralty House.

• On The Tools we’re talking to a serious metal lathe guru. Mal Conomy’s retirement hobby fashioning Hercus lathe spare parts has him busier than in his working life.

• How’s your balance? In Ask-the-Doc we hear from an exercise physiologist about the importance of keeping your balance into older age.

• A spot of fishing with Butch, and Rip Woodchip drops by with his musings on mates.

• Is your shed the best worst shed in Australia? Fair Dinkum Builds is on the lookout and there’s some pretty great prizes up for grabs.
