The jackaroo with the passion for solid timber

When the Great Financial Crisis (GFC) hit Australia in 2008 and 2009, many businesses struggled. Some went broke, some are still struggling and others came out of it even stronger.

TCDC WISE from the Central Coast in NSW is one of the latter by investing in the latest technology from HOMAG Australia.

TCDC WISE was established in 1988 by Tim Corlett and stands for Tim Corlett Design and Construction. Melbourne-born Tim completed his trade under a master craftsman, beginning his long love affair with timber and perfection for his craft.

Their ongoing smart investments in new machinery from HOMAG Australia had surely helped them to increase capacity.

Due to the efficiency of the machines and the successful interlink of their drawing software lead to a massive increase in turnover. In a period of 20 years, TCDC WISE purchased eight machines from the German machine supplier, including four CNCs, three edgebanders and one beam saw. The powerful Brandt Ambition 1650 FC edgebanding machine forms their latest investment from HOMAG Australia.
