    Hi Derek,

    Sorry to hear that you are a bit unwell. Our wives are absolutely the best when it comes to looking after us
    Get well very quickly my friend.

    Regards

    Keith

    im not allowed to get sick, apparently there's no sympathy for moir. I even got a slap when I told the nurse who couldn't find a vein that I wasn't a pin cushion.

    Thank you Peter and Fumbler.

    Hope to get into the shed for some time on the router jig for the lathe so I can get that finished and back onto this build.

    I can relate to that Fumbler. I had to have 2 different anaesthetics - same bloke. Each time he blamed blunt needles for not finding my veins.

    No updates on the waggon as of yet but have not forgotten about it. Unfortunately other bits need doing first like the garden club competition piece and some more turning of ornamental bird houses as I seem to have sold a few. On top of that I had a day sorting out some of my equipment and found some odds and ends that I forgot about as well as not realising how many tap and die sets that I have

    I use to be a plant mechanic so the metal working tools I found useful for some of the woodworking the taps and dies most are good enough for when I was at work except the BA set which I used on my model builds

    I was hoping to get some work done on this build, but like most things other bits keep getting in the way like preparing for a talk that I am giving at the woodturning club I belong to which has involved decorated pieces having to be produced.
    Well I finished those at the weekend and was going to start back on the waggon but something else has cropped up to do with woodturning again but this time I can not divulge what it is until maybe a few months time.
    So sorry for the delays in the build but as soon as I am able I will get work done on it

    Trying to catch up as have been busy with making things for my talk to the club as well as doing something else which can not be divulged at this stage. and on top of that looking after the wife who has not been on top of things, so i am doing housework cooking shopping and all the other bits that she does. Now I know what they mean when they say " A woman's work is never done "

    I have managed a very small amount in as much as cutting housings out for the beams First three picture measuring marking and the cut outs done

    Glead and clamped as can be seen one on either side of the frame

    DSCF0444 (800x600).jpgDSCF0445 (800x600).jpg

    All dry and other parts fitted the clamps are holding the rear axle in place ready for marking out as that also needs the same treatment when I get around to it as I explained work is very slow on this build.
