Prepped the last of the carport mounting plates over the weekend.

Also got a signed for parcel from Andy in Tulsa,Oklahoma yesterday.

Andy the lodger came back from his long weekend, he leaves on Thursday for his next contract.

Brought me a great garage gift for the kind of guy who works in flip flops , as evidenced the last couple of weeks doing a load of cutting and grinding.

An awesome ground magnet.

RESULT !!

I also had @PaulY complain because I had not found a KING DICK spanner for the door handle to his annexe.

So we made one up for him, hope he likes it.

Welded up, mounting plates came from a balustrade I found somewhere. Cut them shorter.

Then one to the real, last job on the list.

Welding the top plate up, and then onto the 200x100 RSJ

DONE !!

Followed by these, and Sally cooked us spicy chicken wraps.

Taken two days off work this week,

Hope to get some steel guys to come quote on making up the steels and fitting a roof for me.
