The result of Socially distancing in the workshop"...

So I have been isolating in the garage and made this

You'll get some stick for that.

Are you doing your own hip replacement  Kerch  ?  

You have forgotten to include the link for on-line orders. Any discount for bulk purchases? It could be a nice little earner during lockdown.

Doc H.

I thought he was coming up with a ventilator, oh well how wrong I was :C  

He was feeling horny

It's jus one of my slightly odd pastimes 

made 5 at Xmas for the grandchildren

tye brass cap was very satisfying to,so BUT it took hours to get a decent finish

Back in the workshop shortly to do second stage of wife's "commission"

I'm long retired but wouldn't be without my garage workshop.  Wife bought me a jigsaw puzzle last week, (I do enjoy a challenging one now and then).

The puzzle is too big for the tray I had so I made a bigger tray.

The tray's too big to use on my lap, so I've just built a coffee table. That's three days in the workshop,    -  start the puzzle soon.

I've got the garage to tidy out and another workbench to build when I get the inclination. I was offered furlough, but instead chose to be one of two keeping our maintenance department going, guarenteed a minimum of basic hours even if just on standby for some of that time. We can't shut down completely, as lots of our clients are considered esstential (grocery stores, pharmacies, care homes, local council, NHS {although havent actually had any NHS tickets during shutdown yet]). Its better than moping around at home

Still feels like I am retiring 35 years to early though...... still I imagine that when this has passed we will be busy for a while doing stuff that would have oridnarly have happened during these months, especially if they wait for the workload to be certain before bringing people back off furlough

God forbid that it takes this long BUt if we are locked down for 3 months there is a good chance I may be able to make a start on the garage /workshop tidy out.

meanwhile......



All polished out and awaiting delivery of foot spikes and ferrules next week...to be continued

That old thing has a very well polished helmet.

Now that  " two meters apart"   is good  .

That farm seems to be growing giant peaches .....IN BRITAIN !!! 

It's one of those eye illusion things

if you stare  at it for about 20 minutes you can just make out a tree in the background
