it rarely comes to anyone in a vacuum! Sorry for the bagpress joke Vacuum jokes tomorrow, to replace last week’s glue jokes ..... ?

I do have one observation though. I've noticed a tendency for people to start side conversations in the comments section which are off topic to what Mark is demonstrating which can be a bit distractin...

Well this has opened up a whole can of lentils! I think you half-opened quite a few different cans 😉 I think the last couple of posts from tv ten ten and Ihab hit the nail on the head. One sees t...

@darrenking Two things then happened which have steered my life ever since. I discovered guitarmaking.co.uk and I ordered a bending iron from another supplier I've already posted a photo-thread of ...

I don’t think I’d come across that site before. Thanks @david-johnson09

I think we've got a bench like that tucked away somewhere. Apparently, they can be dual purpose. Not that I recall using ours for any purpose at all! ?

@david-johnson09 I don’t think you will be in Cali good books @TV1010101 after today’s live stream it was lonely in there ... I was all alone. Much more sociable (distanced, naturally) in the bad bo...

I'm not in a Brazilian forest, but at Knapdale forest a bit further up the scottish west coast You lucky man @robin (well, apart from the midges and the rain!) - that's one of my favourite parts of t...

I love the idea of finding a lump of wood under a caravan What he didn't say was that the caravan had been parked for 50years in a Brazilian wood yard ... ?
