    Way to go Charlie that's looking just about right.
    All it needs now is some rust, barnacles and seaweed.

    Cheers
    Trev.

    Hey Trev, When did you get or make a boat and thus have need for an anchor......
    if you've made one in similar style to that of the other masterpieces, don't try to float it especially with a lathe anchor,
    or the Sydney to Hobart fleet will have to stop to rescue you???

    It'll still sink, if Trev floats it in the ocean,
    and we definitely don't want to loose the captain at sea....
    you know first mate Thayne rescued, as the captain Trev, full of stoic tradition, went down with his beloved ship........

    Can't have any of that when he's got a Brough to finish!!!

    I swam back to shore early this morning after the ship sunk!.
    Damn that lathe, Peter was right the minute I throw it overboard it dragged the hole boat straight to Davey Jones' Locker.
    So there you go doesn't even make a good anchor!.

    Anyway got dried off and started on the second of the cylinders for the Brough.
    I managed to cut out all of the pieces needed to construct it.
    I've just stacked them together on a drill bit to get a comparison with the first one I made.
    Which now has a coat of primer on it.

    Tomorrow I'll sand down all of the fins to give them a taper like the first cylinder.
    Then glue it up and hopefully get it into primer as well.

    Not to worry Charlie.
    Sometimes in life things just don't float your boat!

    It's not as if you used it that much anyway!.
    Besides fishing was distracting you from working in the shed.
    So I reckon I've done you a favour mate.

    And it's not as if it's lost!.
    I'm pretty sure it's just out of shot to the left of the lathe!.

    Cheers Mate
    Trev.

    PS Enjoy the extra time you've got to spend on the train now!!!!!!.
