UPDATING

Had a few quiet months when things other than bandsaw box making kept cropping up, as well as holidays. So thought it was about time to start again. I took a shot of these latest ones today, which have still to be finished off and handles fitted, but it shows I am 'still at it'.

I was going to put this in the 'project showcase, but it seems that it either has problems or needs looking at for access. Keeps asking me to log in when I am already in. Possibly a reason that there are so few entries. Perhaps on of the Moderators could check it out?

I have a 'wanted' add ........

These look excellent, as usual, but I can't help seeing bacon.... perhaps I'm hungry.

 

[wallace]

Remind me of cooked and uncooked steaks. They do look really good though

 

[sunnybob]

Yes, thats purpleheart ......... quite often goes darker, particularly if left frying too long.

Thanks for the kind comments.
I generally get a load of timber when going to timber merchants. Sykes in Tamworth was the last lot, but had a load from Yandles when I went there last year. Need to get some more purpleheart as I've run out now, just bits left over. Still have lots of projects to do.

make another trip to yandles in december and meet up with me and memzey.

 

[Alexam]

As it's over 2 hours drive, I only go when there's a show on, but mist the last two. If you can make one of the shows it would be good to meet up.

I'm only in the UK for 3 weeks in december. Back to Cyprus for new year.
Its almost an hours drive for me, and I will be in the same county!
memsey must be looking at well over 3 hours each way.
C'mon, you know it make sense.
