A little something if your bored.

Recommended Posts

I haven't been on much lately as you will probably have noticed and thanks to the people that got in touch to make sure all was well with me much appreciated.

 

Not had the best of luck the last 2 years with both parents getting ill then passing on but it seems there is a light at the end of the tunnel and it may not be another train coming to flatten me again!!!!!

 

So to prove I am back and to probably make most of you wish I would go away again I thought I'd post some more pics of my little projects to keep you entertained/bored/thinking that Eastenders may actually be worth watching :lol:

 

 

So tonight we have .........

 

How to make a welder trolley out of the scarp laying around the garage :thumbs:

 

Yes I have a scraps pile -

The next one is for the TiG, here it is with a sheet of metal from the bin, please note the newly made welding table :thumbs:

marked that up and cut it down creating a spring in the process :)

I then went back to the scarps pile and found this old jack handle and some brace thingy

I'm sure you are on the edge of your seat to see what I did with them but at about that time the wife called me in for the evening meal so you will have to wait for the next installment :lol:

 

 

 

To Be Continued ..........................................

Hi Chris :wave: Sorry to hear of your bad times.

 

Good to see you making sh*t again!

 

That burner in the shed, is it a gas one? Any good?

 

Hi Sam long time mate :)

 

It's a wood burner converted to burn waste oil - get a lot of waste oil from services so was a no brianer really - As Mr G says keeps the coffee and doughnuts warm as well :thumbs:
