  1. These are a few of my recent projects.
  2. What gets me about this alternate living, which I'm all for as long as it doesn't impact on anyone else, is what do they do about having a postal address. As without a postal address I presume you cant do much, as for as getting a bank account etc.
  3. I like that, nice and quirky. I like playing about with things like this. Cant really help with a suitable finish as I just use owt at hand and experimenting. I bought a load of different style stencils, draw on the wood and then just router along the lines. Just have fun experimenting. I use colour glitter glue and allsorts of weird and wacky things.
  4. Hi, yes It was part of my studies at college a few years back. I really got into it whilst at college, and the ex brother in law is a surveyor for a company, and he can get me some part time work doing it. But since my work place put me through the course, they haven't let me carry on doing any so I'm a bit rusty now, but I'd like to pick it up again. I was also getting quite proficient with sketch up at one point, but again I've gone rusty with it. I turn 50 this year so looking ahead to something else to do when I get fed of being on tools.
  5. Have seen these eyebrow roofs on the odd occasion but o ly on old buildings. Done plenty of traditional roofs in my time but not done one these.
  6. So what exactly should I be looking for in a desktop, that is for usual PC work, plus cad drawing software and photo/video editing software.
  7. I'm in a similar situation, but I'm after a desktop, so I can do can drawings and also try and learn more about photography/ video editing. I asked out tech guy at work, and he said use either hp, Lenovo's or Acer in that order, but at all costs avoid Dell.
  8. What about using clear decking oil, I've used it before with good results.
  9. Doesn't the local council allow you to tip at their local household waste disposal sites if its pre arranged and you pay a fee ?
  10. I have a 25ltr wolf one, had it about 5 year now and not a single problem. I would of thought most in the £100 bracket would be generic ones.
  11. Out of curiosity, how much does it cost, to have a hedge layed, in whatever style.
  12. Always fancied a chain mortice for working in big timbers, but to be honest, I don't have enough work for one to justify the cost. But it will always be on my wish list.
  13. cheers Saul.
  14. Saul, how much do them outdoor tables and benches sell for, if you don't mind me asking.
  15. You not doing kettlebells anymore Steve?
  16. Cheers Steve, I just thought of the meteor, as that is what we had as kids. But yes, an airsporter sounds ideal, I may buy a kit with sights, gun bag etc all included.
  17. Keep thinking about getting a bsa meteor for vermin and plinking.
  18. Just trying to get into photography, mainly wildlife. My wife bought me a bridge camera last year, and I love it, although I still don't know how to use it properly. Have got my grandad's old camera in loft with various types of lenses, might have to dig them out and have a play.
  19. Both me and my dad have got a small Bosch electric saw, nice and useful, my dad had his for at least 5 years and uses it at least once a week, he loves it. Personally I'm now only really interested in battery saws.
  20. Hi, I've got a 2007 plate Tucson, I bought it 18 months and it's been totally reliable. Done about 20k in that time, I can't fault it. I would of liked a terracan but there weren't any about that we liked at that time.
  21. Really nice work, a standard that I aspire to achieve one day.
  22. Higgs, I think mine are the camo field pro, they're like working in slippers.
  23. I'm totally confused by adblue, if it's so critical to use, why don't the petroleum companies just mix it with the fuel at the distillery, or am I missing something.
  24. Hi Steve, hope you're ok. Quick question, I've noticed that on some of them balls you have some have some sort of white dots on them, what's the meaning (if any) behind them.
  25. I've been making some simple chopping boards, tea light holders and clocks out of some off cuts of oak and beech.
