Oh Ray thats just some sepo crap, we all know what "Zing" is!

May be we all need to sing a gay ditty to the changing language.

So how would KFC get on with their Zinga burger? I want a Zing ca ching burga you clown! or is that Ronald McKFC

All this tucker talk! Reminds me I was up at the Ginger festival in Yandina last weekend. Had a ginger coffee and a gingerbread man. Brought home some ginger marmalade, ginger beer and crystalized ginger. What else!!

Sorry Ray, didn't know you were fond of ginger.

Artme been up there a few times nice love their Choc ginger. Envy/jealousy been having ginger beer helps kill a thirst especially when mixed with ice-cream. Ginger is used in Sue's cooking often grows her own. She makes her own Ginger whiskey marmelade, made ginger bread at christmas.

Hi art, din't mind a bit of ginger beer and crystalized ginger myself, maybe thats where I get my Zing from

Few more pics, legs are done and now inside the inner workshop, top boards were jointed (a few curlys), drilling and doweling with dowel pins, glue up is done and now onto the breadboard ends. The boards are various lenghts and only just long enough. I will have to glue some tenons into a few spots in the other end to hold the breadboard ends. This end is good except for one board but its not an issue.

Oh, meant to say that the tenons on the end there still have to be cut, they won't be just two big suckers.

Hi Ray, mmmmmmmmmm ginger beer spider, yum oh

mmm ginger beer spider yes! Never tried it but I can taste it, can almost feel it curdling in my stomach now. Tried ginger and seaweed? Don't bother! By the way with those dowel pins, how do you go about lining up the mating board to them, is it like a Zen moment or something? Is that a jungle trained cordless drill

Hi Springy, yes the Hitachi predator batery drill. I have had it for about 4-5 years now it looked amazing when I first bought it, hammer drill, lots of grunt.
The pins are great, you just take your first board, drill your holes where you want them, insert the pins and then lay that board down facing the second board, push the two together and bingo. I only use them to give me the distance between the holes. Once the second board has been marked I run a square across the face inline with the pin hole, then when you put your doweling jig on (not having changed the depth from doing the first board) (always keep the locating plate on the table top face) it sets the depth. So you have the points between the holes and the depth from the face down. Drill and you're done. Its easier than it sounds and fast.
