Yeah you could say that, it's bread and dripping for a month now!

It's amazing how cheaply you can live when you absolutely must have that thing.

I made a slightly tidier globe mounting solution for the top of an old forecourt pump.

Brian, finally I’ve got my hands on it tonight and had a play

It’s not a Samsung and picture quality is very acceptable but not top end

But for 160 notes it ain’t bad. Gonna see if I can get another one for me. Gonna leave this with the boys

Even for £250 it’s good.

Neighbour was having a clear out. Did I want some 1952 AC Saloon seats in Leather?

Leather was a bit dry so I mixed 4 parts Linseed Oil, 2 parts hard Beeswax and one part white Vinegar. Let that soak in and then polish with Baby oil. Came up a treat!

Trimmed down, it will replace the MG Midget seats in the Austin Seven I got a few years ago from 'Epicyclic' on here.

 

[angellonewolf]

Not the tools just trays spanner tray (bluepoint) and a car wiper remover and stereo removal tool and a hammer

Distance stuff applied and 13 quid for the lot had to drive 12 miles but then dog in car went for a walk on way home

 

[Olderisbetter]

Someone dropped this off by the bin today to see if it was any good to me, it had a metal tube welded inside but that is out now and it is going to have a new handle fitted and a clean up.

Nice chopper young man

@Parm I did have a hammer for you but it's gone in my tool box sorry

I've been doing the scrap at work (mutilating parts that have either reached their service life or are U/S for some reason but not repairable) so have picked up a couple of interesting pieces over the last few days.

This is a Main Rotor hub, other way up wioth a nice wooden base and some supports for glass it should make a nice table.

These are some Main Rotor upper and lower sleeves, may make nice table legs.

And finally, some very lovely and shiny Engine torque tubes. I've got the gimble rings and pins too.
Not sure exactly what these will be yet, but they are just to nice to go in the scrap skip.
