TBH it's not something I would like to repeat
But I think that this would encourage me to do blood exams
I've drilled pz2 size hole in my finger i didn't felt pain until 2 hours later , I've ejected various times some kidneys stone , someone in 308 or 7.62 ISH caliber diameter shooting them through my ureter
A small needle wouldn't be so bad

Today I turned three more or less scrap Dexion shelves into one larger shelf for my friend's garage racking.
They were in a pretty beaten about state and very rusty mostly where I wanted to weld. A hour or two beating them about and cutting to size and I eventually got to weld them together. Not the prettiest of jobs, but I haven't picked up a MIG welding torch for four years and it's pretty thin sheet as well. Add to that trying to position everything on a 30" round plastic garden table I surprised just how straight the edges nearly are
It'll do the job and gets some scrap out of my garden

Bit of fun.
I finished the last 2 "pretend" butches blocks for my friend. Plus had a few off cuts left over.
So I made a few small mug coasters.
One was thin and fun.
The other I built in a OCD trap.

Fitted the euro torch conversion kit @roblane65 sent. Waiting on a solenoid valve then it's play time.

Due to the infection the neck issues and the medication not working, sleep last night was not available.
The TV was rubbish, so I hid myself away in the workshop, there is a song similar to that.
So no power tools.
I made myself a cutting table to allow me to cut out the gaskets for a project in the near future.
All made from scrap wood, 4 nails, pva glue, wood stain and lots of wax.
Old slats lined up on their edges and clamped into half frame. This way you will get one square edge to work from. The PVA is quick drying as well.
Trying for size the cutting block into the frame. The wood fro the frame was from an old bed ripped down ages ago.
The insert needed a few pass with a plane before it would drop in.
Dropped in, planed flat and glued into place. The insert was glued in and the surplus glue was soaked up with saw dust. This makes a decent wood filler.
Stained, waxed and finished.
Lesson learned.
Be a bit for fussy on picking the wood for the inserts, trim the knots outs.
Mitre cutters take a bit of force.
Sanding and planning by hand are hard work.
Do it again?
Yes I would.

Wasn't you who tried to shorten a welding table?
That's would be great IMHO to put a good thick steel sheet on it
Some radii on lips to fix the threepoint hitch from my tractor to a twee meter long 80x80 box profile.
I need to pull up some poles out of the ground, nice opportunity to use my new mill and rotary table.
By the way I noticed the T-slots in the Vertex rotary table are not sqare to the ones in the mill table, when on -0- degree, they seem 4 degrees or so of? Do I need change the position of the small brass plate?

The car has lived in the garage for the last three months. Poor thing is starting to think this is permanent. After the first 'in a bit, out a bit' I dropped a huge lump of wood behind the rear wheels for future reference.
Set about making a smaller cleaner one less likely to trip over.
Vitally important job obviously.

Finished the cover for the Meddings, having messed up the 1st attempt I changed the thing slightly.....

I'm pretty sure I've already asked you something like that but I always like to know what people think about Italian tools
How do feel Beta tools?
I love them essentially because it's one the few Italians companies which still owner of itself .
But also because I growth up using their tools , I expecially do like the grip series screwdrivers and theyr ratchet wrench and sockets and I personally own a complete combination spanners set .
I've noticed that theyr wrenches have very small tolerance ...
When I work on good stuff I use them but on Chinese or bad quality bolts or nuts they refuse to fit and I have to switch to the Lidl wrenches which are not as accurate with dimensions
