@robin ah that could do it. I’m not actually sure where this bit is needed, I’m just going by the essential tools list pdf. However; this should be close enough I guess. Thanks.

@robin he got the idea from Charvel. Doing the angled area was fine, making the plate fit was fine, making actual socket fit with a lead plugged in was less fine! Lol

Very neat practice run @robin.

You’ve done an excellent job of those sides @robin for a first-time……or even a second, third, fourth or umpteenth time……and those are extremely impressive moulds too.
🎶🙂🎸🙏

@robin I know, I’m only kidding. I’ll probably beat the hell out of it over time. 😂 I will treat the top with several coats of poly though, to protect it from too much staining.

@robin 😂 Brilliant! I bet your wife loves that. It must seem like everyone apart from her, to her.

@robin Hahaha….. Nice one Robin, that’s really cool. I love the fact that your wife saw rubbish and you saw a bending iron. I’m exactly the same, I never want to throw out the stuff I find.

Nice work @robin. If you’re happy for a wee bit of advice…..I would leave the braces a little long until after you’ve carved them. It makes it easier to mark out on your sides where you need to notch out…   Read more»

Nice braces they are too @robin.

@robin thanks, I’ll order one straight away!

@robin it’s been mental but fortunately I’m to high up to be affected, people over Brechin way had to get evacuated and all sorts. Water up about 6ft in the houses and stuff. There’s timelapse of the river esk, thing…   Read more»

@robin that’s exactly how I’m doing it. Using the engraver I run 3 passes at 80% power and 90% carving speed. I then took fine MOP pressed it in, lightly dusted around the area with a small art brush, then…   Read more»

@robin Well done! That is one more thing on my “never in my life” bucketlist…

@robin 👍😃

Well done @robin. You did a “descent” job there.

🙂🎸🎶🙏

@robin Well done! I’m glad you landed on the ground at a safe pace that you could walk away from it. 😆  You got more than your target. The air ambulance is such an important service here in Scotland and…   Read more»

@robin You’re welcome Robin, every little helps. Hope the weather improves tomorrow for your abseiling, it’s absolutely persisting down here at the moment, though we are a bit further north than you will be. Enjoy!!👍😃🎸
