open

Hi all, you may have noticed I haven't posted a pen in a while... Well the reason is below, SWMBO has had a design idea and it's down to me to sort.... We have an attic room with space to the eaves under the purlin, it was open ish now she wants doors.. Oh and make it look like paneling...

Well I put this here as there is not any photos would you believe it I made some thing for a family member as the wife asked me Sunday morning "could you just make" well with everything that needs doing I managed to get something finished and as soon as it was done she wrapped it up. So if I can...

One of the few events that could go on safely this year!

So, it was my birthday on the 4th and this turned up on the 6th. By the time I got in I was too tired to open it! Got it open and set up by the 8th. Couldn't for the life of me get the bloody software to work properly until I found a forum on it and did my first successful engrave and cut...

Look what the courier dropped off. And it too late and too cold to go out to the shed and open it. :sob::sob:

Been over to the Club for our Annual open day with the chance to sell as well. The room was full of woodturning and a few other wood related bits. I went around and took photo's of every table except mine:duh: But you can see it in the second photo in the background.

Marco are having their annual Open Day in August where they have discounts and used machinery as well as new. I am going to have a look at one of their Milling Machines and see if I can get either a good price on it or a demonstration model. I have to do some serious jiggery-pokery to get one...
