Yet more seasonal gifts being prepared, some elephants being moved, a seasonal event being attended, more entries for the Christmas Challenge, an early present (much needed in the chilly weather) and of course an Orchid or two for a bit of colour in the recent dull weather. Read on for more:
Burnsy has been continuing on with the planned workspace modifications, this week it was the turn of the elephant in the room. The RU was moved into it's new position, a pry bar, 10 steel rollers, a piece of scrap wood, a bit of careful measurement and ...... it fits - just !! Stove flue fitting and some shelves are next !!
Graham Brooks sent in some photos of a few more seasonal gifts ready to go off to their new homes. We got a look at a couple of bud vases done using coloured waxes and a lovely winged bowl. Very nice !!
John Brown sent in some photos of a new piece of workshop equipment - a shiny new diesel heater for his workshop. After consulting with other members of the group John took the plunge and purchased this 8kW diesel heater from a well known online source. Whatever the weather outside it's T-shirt weather in the workshop now...and of course that means John can spend a lot more time in the workshop and we will be getting lots more photos....see what I did there....subtle...like a brick through a shop window subtle...
Kevin Purdy sent in some photos of a couple of pieces which were turned some while ago with a water droplet paint finish. The pieces initially had a small centre recess but Kevin decided to return them to the lathe and increase the centre recess to make them more useful. Either way both pieces are very nice indeed !!
Patrick Lindsay sent in a batch of photos showing some recent work including a combined effort showing a bowl with the finishing Christmas touches added by his wife. The most recent orchids to bloom also made an appearance !!
Phil Irons followed up on his Christmas event preparation from last week with some photos from the event. Apparently he didn't over indulge at the Cake Stall he was placed next to at the event...or at least that's what we were all told.....
