    Default 20 piece Laundry setting.

    In Huon pine and blackheart sassafras. Each unit is approx 430mm long and fully functional, they have a very snappy bite.

    I really like this. Plain and simple but attention grabbing. If you don't mind me asking, what did you use for the spring.

    Well done.

    Nifty.

    I am also interested in how you make the spring.
    I can see one on the kitchen wall to hold the pile of bills that keep escaping the fridge magnets.

    I saw some smaller versions of these in a shop in Salamanca Pl when in Tassie recently and wondered if you were the maker as I had seen you post them here some time ago.

    I like them a lot but what worries me is the size of the rat trap and it appears you used the springs from them.......I'm not sure if I want to visit Tassi now.......

    Yes treecycle they were mine as well. I do them in a range of sizes. Have been doing them since last century.
    Other guys, The springs I make myself.
    Rw build, the trap is unfinished it still needs the little bit that holds the bait and triggers the whack. Will get round to that one day.

    You brought a smile to my lips. I can't resist saying that I love the bench. What's the switch for on the RHS?

    Hi Erroll, the bench is actually a wood lathe. It's a real Tonka.

    Your lady must have some enormous bloomers to need cloths pins that big!

    Nice work.
