    No one has made fun (light hearted jolly) of you in a long time Sawdust Maker and that just does not seem right.

    yep

    I've been lovingly patting the wood every time I move it to do this (bloomin) part-time job I've got at the moment . Spose I shouldn't complain it's paying for the bench attachments.

    Couple of nails already extracted, a few more the take out (the broken off ones are a pain in the proverbials)

    Good work so far my young apprentice. Soon you will be ready to start building your bench.

    Like pulling hairs Nick ask Christos for his Citric acid bucket you could then re-use those nails for another job. Not many in that bucket what you been doing pulling them with your teeth.

    Nick you got this all wrong you have two fine strapping young lads who need to build muscle and character and learn about working as a team..............you know you stupavise while they curse for being held in child slavery. Besides good bonding time.

    Nick I have in the past been told a squirt of WD40 allowed to soak in helps also heating the nails using a blow torch this I would find helpful on such as a day as today.

    Just seen this. Might bring a couch for this one as a stool might get a bit hard over time. Always love to watch a bench construction.

    This gets me thinking that you either know Nick very well as being so slow or you know Nick very well because he is so slow.

    I've been thinking about this post for a few hours now ... and I'm still not sure whether to be insulted or not



    On a more serious note I ordered the end vice mechanism today - should see it in about 3 - 4 weeks
