    Shhh, I flogged it from the kitchen (no idea what they use 'em for in there) to seal the top of the plastic bucket I keep all the metal bits in. Stops the moisture from starting rust.

    (I also use them to cover the alox wheels on the grinder and the buff on the other grinder)

    It's a bit like over here. SWMBO writes on the cling wrap now, "KITCHEN ONLY - NOT FOR SHED!"

    I'm always floggin' the stuff for glue-ups, I've gotta buy some tomorrow.

    My Mrs comes to the shed when she runs out of paper towel.

    If you find a post of mine that is missing a pic that you'd like to see, let me know & I'll see if I can find a copy.

    Make sure you don't take the label into the shed, she obviously wants to keep that. Just take the cling wrap and you should be safe.

    I have a frypan in the shed to melt wax, took the boss a while to figure out it was gone, by then it was too 'used' to take back

    Have you tried Baking paper or freezer wrap Waldo? It works a treat for glue ups, and doesn't stick to itself along the way. I suspect the freezer stuff may be cheaper, and you can get a much longer roll that's the same physical size because it's only 5 microns or something.

    Completed the roller brackets. I was surprised at how much work was required for these. I seemed to use almost every tool that I own to make them!

    They are just held on with some double sided tape for the pictures.

    At least you can now say without crossing your fingers behind your back that you REALLY DID need all those tools.

    So exactly how many tools did you actually use.



    Not that I am comparing.

    Well, let me see what I can remember - table saw, jointer, band saw, oscillating sander, files various, paring chisels and mortising chisels, drill press, battery drill, float, mortise chisels, screwdrivers, sanding block, tap and die set, square, sliding square, scrapers, etc. I'm sure I missed a few like the mallet, clamps and other such things; the bench was chockers.

    Normally for the shower to stop your hair from getting wet.

    Glad I could help out.

    I think you might be using a bit too much glue.
