Festival of Remembrance - Royal Albert Hall - 12th November 2016 Jeremy Corbyn Is that dreadful man pathologically incapable of buttoning his collar to at least give the illusion that he has the tiniest bit of respect for the countless men and women, past and present, who have fallen or serve to...

First time I've played with this kit, really like it, quite heavy and bit of fun.

Bit of local interest for some. Peter.

So I've been casting PR for a couple of months with so great results but I was getting annoyed at how brittle it was (I need a more robust product). So I bit the bullet and bought a pressure pot, compressor along with some clear polyurethane resin and a shed load of mica colors I feel like a...

My first ever hybrid. I had quite a few blow outs and had to use a bit of touch up glue and saw dust. I do like the end result but I know I can get a better finish in future, also the transition still looks off a bit off. Feedback, as always is welcome. Simon

A mock up for the gifts for #mas fair I'm doing next Saturday. The cloth extends to the end of the table I'll have, not the one here so ignore the blank bit! I may have a bit more room on the floor to the left though!

This was a project of which I had no idea of the problems I would encounter. I started by creating blank of 12mm square. The cellulose paint was about 9mm so I glued the pieces to build up then trimmed down on bandsaw. Drilling had to be done in many bites as the heat generated softened the...

Dug into the burning pile for the clocks and sawed a bit of branch to start tea lights!

Made for the Steelies working outside our house for many months on a big construction for stormwater. We became good friends during this time. Gave and sold quite a few. HINT choose if you can the softer(just a bit) Rebar used for bending. I did,nt know this at this time. Tough drilling. I...

Has anyone checked the accuracy of their mandrel? I tried mine with a dial gauge and it was miles out!! I ended up throwing it away and made my own using an old 2 morse taper drill and a bit of round rod. I am lucky in that I have an engineering lathe as well as a wood lathe but I wonder whether...

In Derek's thread 'knocking on heavens door', showed the generosity of a friend, I mentioned that simultaneously I had been offered some cherry, I was a bit sceptical about the dimensions since I had never heard of a 20 meter cherry tree... Well I went to collect the main trunk sections.... I...

After nearly 44 years travelling the country and working all sorts of hours I've finally packed it in. It's time now to spend some quality time with Lorraine and perhaps finding a bit of time in the workshop.

Tried doing a modified slimline for the first time as i couldn't get on the forum, not perfect but will do as a shed pen, think it's a bit of Hawthorn or similar wood, little black bit was where a small knot was.. :rolling:

Commissioned last year for a real steampunk fan, he was over the moon. The time to dress the tubes alone took me four and a half hours. This was a bit less trouble.
