From what I understand Sydneys the best place for a young man(construction worker) with a huge tool who has problems getting turned on!!



Just find a fireman, indian and cowboy???(I think)

Assuming you were looking for a serious answer. Any tools used in the workplace in OZ need to be tagged and tested every 6 months. Changing a plug on anything here is not legal, let alone to use in the workplace, they do random checks and fines apply.

Do a search on Carpenters, Bricklayers there are dozens of threads gone on in the past discussing all sorts of stuff from wages to licences.

Hi greenman
my hubby is a plasterer and in touch with a plasterer in Brissie and has been told that the power there is all 240v but he doesn't know how he would get on if he was to take his transformer! hope this helps!
by the way, we have other friends out there who is a carpenter and he has loads of work!
good luck with your tra assessment
