I've been busy in my shed...

I'll try and sort out some paypal details but I'm guessing it's only a couple of quid.

 

hahaha

 

Yes I do mate. So the moles in the front garden drove you away in the end did they?

 

I've also turned my attention to the tiled floor in Skippy. I just used a couple of gash floor tiles to see if I could do a neat enough job of cutting some custom inserts to jazz up the ordinary floor tiles.



This is the first one. FAIL slightly too small



This one fitted well and the edges of the kangaroo are smooth and level with the floor tile.



Then I wondered if I could do the same thing with carpet tiles...



FAIL too big to fit the cutout



FAIL too small to fit the cutout.



I started to run out of carpet tile so I tried a blobby shape and I now know what angle to cut at to get the insert to fit exactly inside the cutout.

 

keep at it

 

Lmao id forgot all about that

Ill pm you my new addy dude

 

Was the spade to knock em over the head when they ventured out of the hole or was it to dig a bigger hole to drop the dynamite in?

 

Id been trapping the buggers in the back garden for an age then they started surfacing at the front of the house

The mole hill in front of me in the picture actually had the cheek to come up to the surface whilst i was sat there so i was creeping up to try and belt it on the head

 

There's only one way to get rid of a mole......blow it's bloody head off.
A 'like' to the first person to tell me who said this (apart from me )

 

Jasper Carrott?

 

Indeed it was.

 

Loving it all! Well done! Some skill involved there! Wish I had the patience! If you fancy doing a keyring saying Stig, let us know and we will sort you out some beer vouchers!

Or if you fancy some decent hardwood in return we could sort that instead, got most english grown hardwoods here, all seasoned but all tree shaped rather than processed wood..

 

Wow top work there fella sANDYbAY master tradesman I think.
Well done to ya. Defo a market for the key rings. Much better than buying the mass produced rubbish that is thrown out all the time.

 

Next one done
Drilling holes for the internal cuts



and the finished item cut from a nice piece of English Oak.



So now I just need a couple of postal addresses. Imallowedout and burntout.

paradox and Tiny-Pie Your's WILL be posted today. We spent the weekend out in the van so they didn't get sent over the weekend. Sorry!

 

no problem honestly i'm just so happy with them and grateful they really are great! x

 

Wow! Wasn't expecting to see that when the thread came back up!

Hope you had a good weekend away in the van!

The keyring looks superb! Thank you very much, I posted on the thread earlier but it doesn't seem to of appeared (confused.com).

Lovely job! Have pm'd you the posting address. Thank you! Keep up the good work - definitely a market for this sort of thing!

Well done!
