    Looking great mate, :cool::cool: Just thinking that since you started your fabrication on this forum, I reckon your build skills welding etc have significantly improved with a new found enthusiasm, and because of this your worth a lot more to your employer, though he may need convincing of this, :D:D:D:D:heart:

    You might struggle getting a sailing now Dilli if you intended to take young Nuddger, May have success as a foot passenger.

    I’ve got my sailing booked so I could stop at your nephews place :grinning:

    One picture of a rusty bit of metal, that it like !!! we've been waiting patiently, :rolleyes:
    Remember to take it off that chair when you cut it out, otherwise you'll end up with a commode chair :D:D

    Brought it home and used my new angle grinder to cut it out and I used a orbital sander on one side :)
    Take it to work tomorrow and use the bench grinder and finish it off with a file :) EF35E245-2DAB-4077-9602-BA24FA54D076.jpeg still haven’t found any suitable bar for it but I’ve got plenty to do to it in the meantime :confused:

    Happy with the shape :)
