P.
I tried that route via EBay, but out of stock.

Dealers may be an option.



So a few little things along the way.

Cleaned up Craigs hatchet a bit.

From this.



To this.


Via some of this.



Also added a 50p bootfair handle to the cast aluminium head mate Andy cast two years ago.





Done.



In other news, my local village has a secret person who is crocheting toppers for post boxes and bollards.

It is proving really popular, and people are leaving them in place, which is great to see.



Anthony my one current lodger has a business to print stuff, like emergency bags, T-shirts etc.

He offered to print me a pic of the S10 on canvas.

Brought these samples back Monday night.

I need to frame the canvas next.



Last night he brought home an even bigger print.



Pretty chuffed with these.

Just need to frame and stretch them now.
