Made some room in the shed. Found this right at the back, its probably been there 10 years. Fresh petrol in and it started third pull.
Magic Petrol again?

Made the wire tree a while ago, finally got round to making a base for it. Old bit of wood from my old man (used to be a clock but then it split) routed out a rough pool shape then placed some peach stones in and around the roots then poured a blue tinted resin for the water. I'll need to do some cleanup once the tape is removed, probably sand and polish to front but not bubbles which is nice.
And while I've been stuck inside I finally got round to trying some wire jewelry. First piece isn't brilliant but i'm happy enough with it for a first go. Sea glass inset.

Nothing too ambitious, just something to eat....carrot cake. I'd need a slave to clean up after me though 
I think it must be the can thats magic..

Got the back part of the adapter made and made up an O Ring for it from 1.6mm cord. Also turned the OD of the cap screw head so that it will seal against the O Ring.
Got the bevels cut on the block and then fully assembled.
Tested out to see if the coolant was working and as can be seen it is fine. I didn't turn anything as I really don't want to get the Acetal swarf soaked again as I need to get it hoovered up.

Most of stuff I use, resin and metal powders are from Stiles and Bates, the epoxy I've used here is Glass cast 50. I've also bought casting resin, polyurethane and polyester from easy composites, they do the glass cast 50 as well but I like giving stiles and bates the business. Most of my dyes and pigments are just from amazon.

Couple more posts done. Easy ones today. Ordered 2 65 and a 152mm diamond drill for the lasy two.
Having a problem with the 2 stroke borer. It used to start easy but now dead. It'll start and run with brake cleaner, throttle held open so it gets plenty of oil.
