Thanks for letting me in the door and the words of welcome and encouragement, do have a few bits of wood that have found their way close to the lathe awaiting further attention, will have to see if I can continue the preparation and maybe completion to something worth sharing in between the current project** supplies ordering and delivery.

Thirty-six yrs. of me occasionally repainting and maintenance of what is now 59 yr. structure and fittings is looking a bit tired.

Great to see you here Chas. I echo the above sentiment re your publicised reasons for abandoning the fractious UKWS to its fate. Good call.

I can recommend Algipan for the shoulder. Just DON'T rub you face or take a leak immediately after rubbing it in.... :o :D

You have a lot to answer for. at least that's what the Boss keeps inferring.
