Just a thought Dave, could you watermark a motor home image into your wildelife picture?

Most of you know what women are like. They’ve never got enough drawers. So hopefully this will pacify one of them. Another job that I would have lost money on. It’s taking me most of the day to weld in the drawer runner carriers and fit a multitude of M4 countersunk screws with nyloc nuts. I’ll...

The daft thing is the bulk of our sales are overseas, when we ask why do they buy from so far away they say they like the quality. Maybe quality doesn’t matter in the uk.

I have wondered if this would help sales. My works has a S post code, and I have wondered if a made in Sheffield badge would be a good or bad thing? I was in a big new supermarket in France, and they made a big thing about where products came from. Nothing English btw.

Trevor, it's not always about price. Service is priceless. Many of these days "bedroom businesses" just sell. Generally they don't even understand what they are selling. Dave's the sort of chap that want's to help, so he needs supporting. How many suppliers would talk you though your...

I will have a good look tomorrow when back in front of a real computer. I’m or rather Anita is working on compiling new pictures and “blurb” to go with them. Over two thousand items we think to go on our new website. Part of a rebranding exercise due to legal problems. Unfortunately we’ve had to...

As it was a wet miserable day today, I had a play with some more ducting. Window demisting was unimpressive, but showed signs of working.

And there was me thinking it looks like a posh plumbers van with the tube to keep your copper in. ;)

A bit of quick research, and it’s possible to 3D print a wax mould and melt it out when done.

It’s a 90mm Tee section plugged in the end, so you’d need a good size printer. Also due to the temperature I’d be worried about using a thermoplastic. I should have put some draft angle on the round section. It might have escaped the mould better. I have a few stress fractures in it, but it...

More painfully slow progress. I now have the first of two mouldings to connect the fan heaters to the ducting. Now you will notice that it is translucent and this is for good reason. This is a vegan friendly moulding. No pigment was used! ;) If you think I’m being silly, at least I know I am...

Very sensible.

More Owner/Slave collaboration. I drew up the model. Anita cut and glued the blocks of modelling foam together. Then set the tools and indexed the block. The CAM file was loaded and away the machine went for the day. First a rough cut and then a finishing one. So much work for just two...

12kw boiler David. :)

Back on the co-pilots seats today. All was going well until the water cooled TIG torch hose exploded. I did think the torch was getting warm and it would soon be time for a new one. Anyways I've done enough to prove a point and I think it will work. It will be bolted to the seat mounting...

All storage, remember you must comply with your owners wishes ;) The cooker will sit next to it.

Have you a link to your sprung hinges Phil?

This is the kitchen sink unit with positions for eight drawers, the ninth being a dummy for the sink bowl. Hafele Metal Drawer System 400 x 150mm (toolstation.com) for the bottom six. Hafele Metal Drawer System 400 x 118mm (toolstation.com) for the top two. I'm thinking 6mm buffalo for the...

Inspiration please, all ideas welcome.

I just love your fabric lined cutlery storage. It's those little details that makes me smile.
