As many here know I don't make a lot of pens but do enjoy making the odd one now and again as well as doing a little casting. Anyway I got hold of a pressure pot and have found that I never use it so I am looking at exchanging it for some goodies. It will need a good clean which is how I got it. It will need to be collected due to weight and size. Max working pressure is either 35lbs or 55lbs hard to see

What have you turning wise even half decent pen kits even thread cutters but I think they are worth more than this pot.

Why do you have to be at the other end of the country Derek. :sob: I've been thinking of buying or making one for a while.

I always find that as well. It is the problem when you live out in the corners of the country

But at lest we have sand on our beaches.:tongue::funny:

Ah yes Mark, sand. Is that this yellow stuff on the beach a few miles from me? Oh and what's that I see in the background, a centuries old castle. Have you seen one of those in the Ozzie outback Mark? :winking::ciggrin:

Are yellow sand areas like green ice all our beaches are white. Mark has a point who could resist his holiday shack.Living where he is he is away in isolation from Brexit, separation going on in Scotland, the Barmy Army when we play the Brits cricket, the new Leader in the USA so many benefits.

We drove thousands of miles along the whole coast line from Perth to Monkey Mia, Melbourne to Sydney, brisbane to Noosa and the area around Cairns including many of the beaches around those cities and we saw plenty of yellow sand Peter so they aren't all white surely.:thinks: maybe I'm colour blind :ciggrin:

Never seen one except in a book they do not live in my area. Must visit the Australian Museum Walter.:thinks:

I spent a whole day at the Blue Mountains near Sydney searching for Funnel Web spiders and never found any. There were some dead ones in the swimming pool though and they were nasty looking beasties.
