I thought that I would be working on the Bandsawn boxes that I started but the family is coming down this month for a couple of days so I have to get some of the bits made for Christmas, That is so they can take them back with them saves on postage. Also will be out of commission for a few days this month have to go into hospital for an Angiogram not looking forward to it

JUst finished completely removed the rear entrance to the house and replaced with a new unit bugger of a task all by myself but the weather was kind thank goodness. Now in the throes of installing a new Webber Q near the workshop so we can do all our general cooking there since it works and is designed for use with the lid down. The weather threatened yesterday so I raced into the workshop and bowled over a couple of pens.

Bit of a slow start down at Sheddington today, four blanks chosen, drilled, two lots glued in & waiting to cure, two lots of tubes primed & painted and now waiting to dry. :thinks:

Gotta go with Margaret now, shopping then the pub :whistling::whistling::whistling:

So no more Sheddington until tomorrow :thinks::thinks:

I thought I would have a blitz on the formers I need to finish so I can get the latest lot of mould made, drilled them all out to the diameter of the tubes when I should have drilled them for the internal diameter of the tubes, so Now I have to fill the holes with epoxy and drill them again, I hate doing things twice:rant:

The placement of the roof to the workshop was called off today due to the rain, so we went shopping to help with the withdrawl symptoms .. :sob:

Still haven't found a place for everything in the latest shed clean up. I still need at least 3 days to get it all sorted. Looks like I can say goodbye to entering the Omega pen competition. :sob::sob:
