Hi folks, I get the belt guard finished, and a few other little jobs completed on the Holbrook B9 and the realisation dawns that it is nearly finished! I have the collet draw tube to complete, and the belt guard pivot to finalise, and then it is time to finalise the underframe, and remove it to drill the holes for fixing and lifting, aqnd then it's paint, paint and more paint!

Hi folks, I Get sidetracked so easily towards the end of long projects, but I looked in the firewood bag, and there it was! Antiques repaired, trees trimmed, some milling, some lathe work, another week of winter passes, roll on spring!!Phil, in suddenly very cold East Yorkshire

Hi folks, Short week, Monday on Taxi duties, and Thursday at the osteopaths with my shoulder strain! I finally decide to get stuck in to the Holbrook steelwork, and strip off all the drive and underskids for drilling and painting, it goes well, and I may sneak back today (Saturday) and put another coat on, which will be the first coat of black. If it is not sufficiently dry by Monday I will be starting another project in the new space I have now that the stairlifts have GONE!

Hi folks, Holbrook painting, antique repairs, and a future project on a Watsonian D type jaguar replica. If anyone remembers the very popular TV series Lovejoy, he had a guy called Tinker who was always "improving" antiques, I am begining to feel like Tinker should be my middle name!
