And for my next project

Post by AL37 »

I have been gathering materials for a while now, but for this project I will be putting my wood working tools away and getting some of my favorite tools out. )c(
These will include my welder, angle grinder, big hammer and maybe even the stihl saw. :-D
So far my gathering of materials has found me rummaging in my local scrap metal merchants and in my mates scrap metal pile.
I have gathered together most of the parts which include a 6 foot length of 5" diameter pipe, various pieces of round steel bar, a gas bottle, a few bits of angle iron, a couple of old hinges and a few nut and bolts from my own garage.
Cost so far, less than a fiver. Although there is one part that I would like to add that will have to be paid for but if I tell you what it is I will give the game away. ((w
Can any of you guess what it will be?

PS. At £5 - that probably wouldn't be cost effective.

I remember a time when I was the only woman, (as my daughter had left home), with my husband and 2 almost adult boys.......Sunday dinners were mur.der....!!!!! Words like 'Wench' spring instantly to miind....even all these years later.

I believe that revenge is a dish always best served cold! I am already trying my hardest to prove that saying right!!!!! (My boys would definitely already agree I think!!)
