Pretty much all that's happened around here this year, in no particular order. The central heating oil tank sprang a leak, had to have a new one and it had to be repositioned away from the house.
And the Severn Bridge painted, (well, it felt like it).
After painting the big shed I thought the addition of a length of guttering would be a good idea to stop the water run off splashing back up and rotting the bottom boards of the shed, so.
Pipes and fittings delivered tonight courtesy of Gary. Cost? Adjusting handbrake shoes on his Crafter and 1 brake pipe to replace (pipe made & work in progress).
13 new double glazed units replaced in front conservatory and house.
Made a rig to mount a sanding disc using and old mains drill. Including dust collector.
Made another rig to turn my electric plane into a jointer, brilliant bit of kit is this.
This is a mount for holding my "Dremmel" type tool, it frees up your hands.
Where the old oil tank lived is now our bin storage area so it needed a panel to hide them behind.
And, where the bins used to live, a new bench.
The remainder of the fence panel was used to fill the gap between the Shed and the fence.
Another little job was repairing the cord on someone's electric hedge trimmer from after approx. 15 minutes use from new, I won't name names but it begins with Andrew Elliott.
Finally, for now, we helped our local with the "Eat out to help out", one or twice.. Would've been rude not to eh?
Roll on normality.
