When I had the garage built a room was made in the middle of it for an outside toilet. It has never been plumbed in and has been used as a junk room so I've decided to use it for my casting room. The junk has nearly gone so now to put up a bench and some shelves.

Are you going to fit an extractor fan Paul

I used to like agricultural equipment but don't any longer Derek so I'm now an ex tractor fan :funny:

I don't think I will Derek as I mostly use Alumilite and will use my respirator when using other stuff... but that may change over time. My priority was to get some of the stuff out of my shed and into somewhere that could be kept warm easily.

With a cast of thousands to Supervise Paul this looks the place. Nowhere for the traditional casting couch however all the best start somewhere.

I'd be a bit concerned if it has a casting couch. It hasn't has it Paul and if it has then does your missus know?:whistling:

does this mean you will supply the forum with funky blanks Paul :devil:

ha ha, you never know George... here are the ones I cast today.

A White Ensign with the Alpha flag (divers down) for an Omega, Fish for an Jr Gent and 1966 world cup stamps for an cigar.
