Stuff you have made today

Right part of the world, it's Chashu pork to go on ramen. In that picture it had already had two hours boiling with a chicken to make the broth, then it went in the oven in that pan of soy and mirin for a couple more hours, then in the fridge overnight before getting thinly sliced and crisped up in a hot oven. The egg got the same soy and mirin treatment overnight in the fridge.

Delicious (and very photogenic ) but it's a lot of work for noodle soup.

Looks fantastic, was this inspired by a certain Frenchman on youtube?

First 2 posts and the first beam put in for what will become a covered pergola/gazebo. Also some more formwork for adding a concrete bench along the right hand wall.

It actually was, but not how you're thinking . I couldn't think what I wanted for dinner so had a look through said frenchman's book and saw a recipe for pho, which made me think of ramen.

I'm not much of a brick layer but this was done tonight. Just before I laid the last stoned it began snowing...

 

[Seadog]

Today (and yesterday) I modified/made this. I think I'll do a thread on it, but it could equally as well go in the "What have you ******** up Today" thread

My stuff from the last two days, the chassis is just made from remaining bits of aluminium sheet I can find in the garage, prity crap at the TIG work, not done for a long time, least the welder still works and I did some welding.

Playing with Kicad and learning old tech!

Valves?

Valves?

Yep

 

[Muckmagnet]

Been wanting a tube notcher for some time so today decided to start making one, well part of it at least out of scrap.
Went round on my hands and knees dragging out every bit of scrap hidden under the benches and in dark corners to make the tube clamp.
It might not be pretty but should do the trick once I get round to sourcing the rest of it.

 

[Cuthy246]

Got the rest of the posts and beams put in. Just needs bracing and a roof now.

The startings of a new shed. Going to get rid of my shipping container workshop and move into the garage so need somewhere for the stuff in the garage to go. Building it from scratch, it will be steel frame, with wood infill.

Got some requests to make some face masks for a few folk, and realised how depleted my fabric stash has become.

Fortunately, the pillow case I used was just the right shade of pink.


Another bad quality photo of my long running saga of the mini companion set. I think they built the Titanic in less time.
Still to be powder coated black, but not the brass. I will probably change the shape of the brass bit a little, by adding a taper at the bottom. The poker still needs a stand, so more practice for me on the lathe, and hopefully the milling machine.

Good work on the masks.

Is the fire side set small to suit the small fire and the clock a normal size one?

Just to really mess with your mind, the fire is small (under 2 foot in height), the companion set is tiny (approx 8” tall), and the pocket watch, from memory, 7” ish.

Either that, or it was onehellova big rabbit.

More a case of unmade: stripped out 3 x old Sky boxes to 'make' 3 x 500 Gb hard drives. One of them will be perfect for my old stand-alone PC that runs Win XP.

Is Jeeves the curator?

Promised my housemates I'd make them pizza once I'd finished the ramen off.

Again.

A trommel attachment for the disesassel concrete mixer.
Drum from a washing machine/drier, held on with wire tensioners, small U-bolts, and carabiners.

Soooooooooo many holes to enlarge.
Ideally , i'd've cut panels out and replaced with plasterers expamet.
Job for later, when Selco re-opens

This seems to work.
