Quickly made a keyring before I came home. Too long in the dye and too deep with the engraving but at least it showed me it is possible to cut it on the plasma.
Plasma took about 30 seconds, engraving took a minute or two, anodising 15mins, sealing took the longest at 30 mins

So I could mount this:

Today I made "progress " on the welding trolly

I've added a bit of length to the top shelf with a vee ,I'll add some hooks or loops to secure the bottle .I also took out a lot of the warping .

Cut a pull handle and some chequer plate for the base , I might just stick it in with some windscreen sticcy ! dressed up welds with me improvissed die grinder . Trend 1/4" router with the base removed . It served purpose . It'll be grand when I've glossed it .

A couple of attempts at making a keyway broaching bush. I made all my mistakes on the first one on the left, but the second turned out OK. Good enough for government work I expect. The slot was a bit to one side on the first one. I didn't quite find the centre on the mill. It's for a 3/16" keyway in a 3/4" bore.

I have the broach and the even the QC failure bush works in a fashion. See the pic below Unfortunately it cuts the key slot on the wonk so it will be heading for the scrap bin. I have high hopes for the second one though. I've had an old 1hp motor kicking around the garage for a few years and I've decided to make a 12" disc sander out of it. The shaft is imperial, hence all this work.

made a fuel tank for a rally car tried using 2.4 rods instead of 1.6 that I normally would use on 2mm, photo through the filler of penetration

I love how you messed the key cut up in case someone copied it.

I love how you messed the key cut up in case someone copied it.

I wasn't sure if it could be done easily or not so no chances taken. It is also chipped so the key itself wouldn't work but these bleeding criminals nowadays have all the gadgets.

Doesn’t cost naught to be cautious

Today (Or rather throughout the night) I made a great big mess in the fridge.


It was going to be a focaccia but I decided to get an early night so rather than shaping and cooking it, I knocked it back, clingfilmed it and stuck it in the fridge, thinking the coldness would slow the yeast and I could finish it in the morning. Not so.

 

[Maker]

Despite that mess, it might just be the best one I've made yet.

If you added Madagascar onto the side you could use it as a bottle opener...

Been there done that, cleaned up the sticky mess. Could have been worse, there was a pretty big one in Edinburgh a few years ago. Pizza place dumping their dough in a public food waste bin.
