So at 3.30 am my night was over, backache and then a chat with Dennis.
By 04.00 a mug of tea and forums.
Sally was up at her place by 05.00 to get her son to work for 05.45 as his car snapped an alternator belt yesterday,
So by 06.00 she came to pop in and bring me a mug of tea in bed.
Perfect ehhhh.
Anyway, once I was up, we made brekkie toasts d tea.
And of course had to use the new bench.
I can report it got approval from all parties.
Once done, I went to the garage to fetch out some hinges for Mickey next door and the cast pieces we made at Andy Martin’s place in Oklahoma last year, plus the cast iron ones bought at various venues.
They needed to be mocked up as part of the bench decorating
But before that, mixing PVA wood glue and sawdust from my wood-shop lathe table, to fill in the holes where all the screws were countersunk.
Filled, needed to dry in the sun, then sanded back to flat and smooth.
Still need to look in my badge pile for a Chevrolet badge to fill the gap where one used to live.
Sally and I tried the stars in various configurations and settled on this.
Once selected, there always is more to be done.
In the mean time, a few hours later, the holes all filled, and sanded back to standard.
Stars next,
Probably some time this week if I get time after work.
Thanks for checking in.
