Stuff you have made today

[Brad93]

Beer/Wine ice bucket for my mrs Company.

Some sort of issue causing soot. Hard to say whether it was the scotchbrite (although I cleaned with acetone) or a gas issue. Either way I need to check connections and lines. I've got a feeling I may have a hole somewhere in the torch cable.

Probably would of looked better if I glued the letters on but didn't have anything suitable.

I cleared my shed work benches then filled them again..... seems I have run out of room

Is that what a floor looks like?

 

[MattF]

Is the dropped L intentional, Brad?

Yes, bloody Americans.

a floor

That's a mythical creature isn't it?

Edit: Actually I have seen one once long ago in the garage, stable and shed.

Edit: They were grey.

Now I'm no expert, in fact I'm very much in the learning stage for Tig. I can't even tell if that's stainless or aluminium.
Brad, is there any reason you could not have drawn around the letters and drilled 3 small holes from the front, inside the lines of each letter, then plug welded from the back?

Yes that probably would of been a good way of doing it. This is just a freebie job so I didn't want to sink too much time into it.

There probably would of been some distortion resulting in more grinding/polishing required.

TEK screws would be ideal!

These?

 

[awemawson]

I cut my letters as a single piece and bolted them on on delrin pillars with stainless nuts and bolts

 

[Blobber]

A couple of monkey tools for tidying up the shoulder of tenons

 

[4String.]

Just fitted the bracket for the ropes which has made the back of the cab a tiny bit tidier:



Parked in the badlands of Bedfordshire tonight and it's a bit quiet tomorrow so I've been told to have a steady drive north in the morning, whereupon my next task is to somehow fit a spare "H" frame to the suzie rack so I can store my sheets and sweeping brush and numerous other tranclements up out of the way .

Altered the depth stop mount on the TS to allow me to mount a digital readout.

Thought you had given up driving?

Give it time . . .

No a job I could do though - I get irritated on a 15 mile drive back from my mums at 1am Monday morning with slow, irritating, tail-gating, non-indicating, corner cutting, wrong way clowns . . . not everyone is as perfect as I think I ought to be

He fessed up a while ago he just couldn't live without the driving , or she said " GET OUT FROM UNDER MY FEET ! "

 

[Tupers]

I had to migrate away from the workbench to lay the full run out. The top length still in the wrapping is 2255mm.

@Tupers Looking good, I presume that's the ball run. Which side does the ball usually come out of?
