Careful kev!
What with all this 2m distancing, some of us flat earthers are already close to being pushed over the edge!  :stars

Tool abuse? - How very dare you!

I'll have you know, no grinders were harmed in the making of this planter. :-\

Perhaps more basic, but an old range-rover rim, seen use several evenings this week...

A 'borrowed' oven shelf on the top would make it into a nice barbie.

(Don't tell the Mrs. though... ;))

Well Herself used to run a Home-Baking business for the Farmers Markets. We've a fair few racks and stuff lying about... I'll see what I can sneak out of her shed.

Anyone want a 20lt industrial bread/scone/cake mixer ? That's sat in MY shed taking up valuable room that could be filled with old tyres or something...

 ;)

Anyway, upgrading the old Rostyle from Heat to Catering would be a good move...

Today I have mostly been cleaning up a 1957 Minimax car fire extinguisher.
I used a paste made from salt, vinegar, and flour.
I just need to buy a can of Brasso now, for a final polish. :cool

Did you get permission to borrow that metal signpost from the “ Grand Junction Canal Company “ ?

*Marker post.  ;)

Are you the C&RT police or something? - Do we need to speak off the forum?
