Stuff you have made today

[Tupers]

I’ve been meaning to do it for ages but over the past week I finally got decent inlet and exhaust filter setup built in my paint room.
I don’t do a load of paint work but it’ll be nice to keep a bit more dust out of it when I do.

 

[Farside]

Got bored at work today, so made this.

Yesterday I made the left hand pillion peg.

Got it anodised and also stripped and re-anodised the foot brake pedal. Still have to engrave the peg but hopefully I will get a chance to do that today.
Also made up some stainless pins for the pegs.

Brake pedal on showing it is fairly close in colour to the front peg.

Put me in mind of George

 

[prepman]

Not me. My 7yo.
He's been wanting porridge a lot recently so taught him how to make it himself.

This morning he decided to make it tasty by adding salt pepper and extra hot chilli sauce.

He might have enjoyed it but my 4yo didn't think so when he got a bowl. Neither did his gag reflex

Ah!....He should've used the 'Healthy Boy' soy sauce from Morissons.

Brass is a funny one to cast.
I have had mixed success with it.
The best was when I used a green willow stick. Then cleaned the dross off, before pouring.

I found it nigh on imposible until I found out that you dissolve the copper into the molten zinc and NOT t'other way round. I use borax for everything. But not as Bath Salts.

Boat load of jacketed pipework tacked up over the last few days.
All 316 in and out, with ILC unions.
Bends, tees, straights, s-bends.

For vacuum jackets? Used a lot in cryo.

For vacuum jackets? Used a lot in cryo.

Glycol I'd imagine, to keep the product in the pipe warm and flowing nicely.

[eLuSiVeMiTe]

Just waiting on the paint.
Can I be bothered to cut a couple is stencils. Probably not now I think about it

 

[Hood]

Peg finished and fitted.

 

[MattF]

Looks good.

 

[eLuSiVeMiTe]

Patience was required. I didn't have any today.

Il touch up the paint another time.

Not the best match of blue but will do

Put a new bulb holder and one new bulb in the infrared heater that someone gave me because it was broken. Plus side it works and one bulb feels like it could cook your kidneys, down side the second bulb came pre snapped so no full body frying yet.

I milled a pocket in the riser block for my Chester 626 mill.

1 down 2 to go. Slow going on my little Warco Minor mill drill!
