Thread: Zinc top table

Yep goes in ya tomato sauce!! No its flux for soft soldering all your standard metals, zinc, copper, mild steel, gal, brass., comes in a paste too.

Tomatoes sauce? Vinigar? I guess just having messy lunches on it will get the patina just right.

Ok, I haven't done any metal work, never been equipped enough but hope to get around to it one day for many reasons. I thought most of tomato sauce is pumkin

No it's all tomatos, rotten ones, green ones, magoty ones.

TL, you're very right, just some people are impatient.
Some people want old things to look new and others want new things to look old, hard to work out sometimes.

Done! another happy customer. Took 8 people, myself, 4 landscapers, the owner, and 2 builders who were enticed with a carton of liquid refreshments to get the thing up some stairs (with a turn) through their house and out to the back deck, what a mission. To get it up the stairs we had to turn it upsidedown and lift it up over our heads. Alls well that ends well.

Excellent!

An interesting finish to an interesting job , nicely done .

paul , k

And not a trace of liquid refreshment to be seen , that's the way

Claw Hama you always seem to be doing the large builds. The question that I have is how do you get these items on your truck?

Oopps I forgot to say well done on the completed job.

Hi Guys thanks for the nice words. Chrstos, I have a strong son a kind/ strong next door neighbour who also lends me his ford van for deliveries and a strong brother inlaw. This table didn't fit all the way inside the van, the legs at the back only held on by about 50mm. I tied it in and then tied the door down. I didn't want to put it on a truck or trailer as I would have had to tie it down over the top which would have streched or brused the zinc. Newcastle to Sydney with the engine fumes was fun.

Cripes you came to my back yard.

How about this next time only breath out.


I know now I am being silly.

Gorgeous work Craw...... aww now Spring's got me doin' it! Next I'll be asking if you have a complete set of finger prints...... gee what era did I grow up in? 'scuse me while I go back to watching Shintaro carve up a ninja.

Would you believe,,,, it was just me and a team of boy scouts...........................ahhh, well maybe not. And breathing out only is a great idea, why didn't I think of that.
