BIG g'day from Baz!

G'day blokes and sheilas! Baz here from Canberra! I've been prospecting and fossicking for the last two years in NSW and VIC, rekindling a childhood hobby digging for crystals. Now I've moved into gold and I'm LOVING IT! Nothing better for a reset than to sit in a bubbling creek with a pan between your feet. Nothing else exists in the world while I'm immersed in nature this way.

I come from a farming background of wheat and sheep in the south west of W.A, cattle stations in the upper Gascoyne and Easter Goldfields, the Royal Australia Army for 16 years. I am now a knifemaker, blacksmith, teacher, amateur astronomer and movie prop builder. Got a website called Builds by Baz where I share all my creative builds.

Looking forward to getting to know the community more!

Luv, Baz.
