View attachment 236817 View attachment 236820 Flat roof railings,and the first time to use neat crimped ferrules,pity doesn’t show the view as it’s a pretty wooded dingle.

I might have been tempted to fit heatshrink sleeving over the turnbuckles just to minimise the agricultural look.

What’s a dingle other than the family on Emmerdale.?
.

Slot,groove in the landscape,miniature valley,usually frequented by a fast flowing brook,subject to surge floods that are very quick to respond,this one has a head of about 1000’ and swells to double its usual height within an hour,as happened Monday.

Fork caps were looking old after pulling the tubes out, good excuse to use a PCD insert.

Last week did not clean lathe. Found that veg oil really goes off quick and sticky when it is mixed with swarf. I need a new cutting oil!

In about 2 after you drop it down, supply the wax, the brush, the wax and the hard work.

Can we get a gear run down Sir?

Behringer Neutron nice big patchbay dual osc and can get very odd if you put your mind to it.
Behringer Pro1
Again dual osc.

Clone of the 1980s pro one by sequencial circuits.

Behringer Crave
Single osc with a nice patchbay. Useful in conjunction with the neutron but a capable bass synth on its own.

Novation SL mk3.
8 track sequencer 8 track arpeggiator.
Midi and CV controller. Also very customisable to intergrate with a Daw.

Cheap mixer. Just about enough for my needs right now

Tr-8
Emulation of the 606 707 717 808 and 909.

Tb-3
Emulation of the tb303.

Roland sh-01
Another virtual analog. 64 note poly and very nice for pads and chords.

There's a mpc Renaissance hiding under the monitor
Software/hardware based so not limited by ram and CPU like the old standalone gear


Dumped all my old midi controllers in the loft for now

Edit.

First test after wiring it all up.

Started modifying the rubish old cam chain tensioner to be a manual type. Impressed in the casting zero porosity and takes a nice finish, unusual for a honda cast part, but a new one does cost 75 quid.

A quiet build day. In that limbo were I am waiting on a call from work, that never came. So I had a day pottering.



This Meggar takes a PP7 battery. Yes, they are available, but for a lot of pennies, so I brought myself an adapter.



The adapter allows me to use a PP3 9v battery.



Lots of space, but I have added a off cut of sponge to stop the rattle of the battery.




Fitted the V belt I got yesterday. The main frame is Oak, but I noted when the motor was running there was an annoying resonance and vibration.
So strips of Linden wood was inserted in between the base and the frame.
The linden wood with absorb the vibration and can be replaced when it gets worn.
Oh yes. I got some Dome nuts fitted to the retaining bolts.



A small job for a local multi use hall.
Pointers.

All of them are made from Oak floor cut offs.

To hide the shanks, splits and other defects the wood was sanded and filled.

As wood filler is difficult to hide, some are to be painted, some are to be waxed.








The decent and decorative defects are being used as a point of interest.

Parkin! My Mum always made it when I was a kid, first time I've baked anything other than bread for years...

 

[Lazurus]

Parkin!

Gingerbread made with black treacle and oats.
Will glue your teeth together.

And ginger.

I must have made it incorrectly then as mine doesn't! Saying that, I've only tried crispier bits from the outside...

Funny how 'Project Management' said she'd never tried it before and, after trying it, proclaimed she wasn't a fan but I soon found that bits (just out the tin and not cut up) kept disappearing from it...
