Phew, that jet is a bit dear innit? Price is relative. Once my cooker design takes off, I plan on a buying matched pair for me an Mrs. T Only the best for transport, since I do everything else on the cheap. <grin> Turtle  |

Well, i've had a good day skip diving today! A top i dismantled from a Coste range. Same range as the retrofit one. A bit more modern. Tho the innards and top were pretty much the same.  And a few glazed doors from a octagonal fronted stove.  Well, dismantling the top, i lost a 12mm wrench, and cut my hand tring to recover it from the bottom of the skip  I gathered a lateral channel blower too. Good find, worth some money. I got a shopping troley too, for it's wheels. I a whore for shopping troley wheels! They all end up under my woodworking machines  And some ruber matts too. |

Well, it's not that old a machine, may be 70's or 80's. |

Well, i'm grumpy for the moment. I've sold two sets of stairs for 6800 euros aproximately, which have taken me about 300 hours, loads in wood. Etc. And that's about half the price i should have charged. Very angry against myself. Bought a chimney insert the other day, for it's door and facia, for 20€. Not bad. Tho that's for the top stove. I 'm just in the limbs for that one. I've bought firebrick slabs for teh bottom stove. I'm getting nearer to start it. I realy need to, because my workshop is drafty, and when it hits negative temps (in celcius) It won't be funny.  www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10201101269691300&l=fb2b585a28And about you, you're ok? |

Very nice work, Max. Sorry you are grumpy. I have been doing really well. An art project I was working on turned out really well.

Lovely stairs mate, gorgeous work. I am a little jealous of you right now, such nice views, such amazing materials, you have space to store them, and amazing skips! I am lucky to pull decent bits of timber from the ones round here. Oh and I really really want your truck and crane.

Don't be jealous, just remember that it was an old monastery here, and there's no girls availlable! Well, not much! For the rest, you always can get the same kind of stuff, it only takes time and money! Thought, if you're talking about the red truck, it's not mine! |

Yeah, money's not something I got :-) time, well lets see what happens when my little uns don't need as much attention :-p I have plans for building off grid on a little field that include a workshop powered by a rocket Stirling engine generator. Hopefully with a decent yard tucked behind. Thats gonna take some time but one day, oh yes one day.
