Smile Thanks guys

Thanks to all of you for the moral support.

Tis nice to see that folk can understand where I am coming from & looks like I am certainly not alone when it comes to things that you are just not quite happy with.

Since I have last posted on this thread, I have managed to amass a fair few components & this will help towards keeping my current build " Rolling "

Next week, I hope to make a start on the build table .... Torn between a wooden one or an all steel one !!??
Logic says to me, steel frame, steel legs, 18mm exterior ply top & all capped off with a sheet of steel, 2/3mm thick.

I have a number of fabrication projects to do so need a sturdy, long lasting table !!
New railings and gates for the front of the house, must get rid of that lethal up n over door on the workshop, tis a death trap, I think a new pair of steel doors is the order of the day there.
The list is endless really. Methinks Junior is going to have to learn to weld soner rater than later !!??

One thing's for sure, my days of being able to crawl arround the floor fabricating stuff are long gone

Whilst all of this caper is going on, I have to start another hunt for a decent Vauxhall Omega gearbox.
Found one a while back but it was a self removal job ( Only £30 ), weather tuned crap & I wasn't well enough to get it .... Left it for a few weeks, too late, it had been crushed

Adrian

If you are ever close buy, I would love to share some Roaster chat
