These old newish pellets are great all dressed and easy to work with, made this work bench and some shelving for all that shit on the floor now ill have to buy more shit to full the other shelf.

I really did put much thought into them to be honest.Just wanted a small afternoon project with stuff i had on hand and with the success of the 12" speakers ,i made the 8" ones sound nicer than in the cabinets they can from but still lack any decent low frequency,A mate did also said try a bigger baffle and put in the center .

AD4200 i pulled from a 1960 stereo cabinet . Also made other pair yesterday with some smaller Philips AD3800

My afternoon project from stuff left over from past projects Is my first pair of Open Baffle speakers And this morning was a very basic router table that works a treat , Also Speakers sound awesome

After picking up this old stereogram chassis from the bin im feeling very pleased with myself today that i successfully remove all the radio parts and put a new plug with killing myself and these old rola speakers sound great as they sit ,mids and highs awesome, low frequency not so much,

Started to build a waste oil burner today out offcuts and scrap parts Couldn't help myself to test the burner with a cup of oil sitting in the bottom ,oil feed will be fitted tomorrow (1 cup =15mins), 1st video is with the leaf blower it burns cleaner but way to noisy, 2nd is with compressed air i

My latest project completed Steel and Kwila Shelves.I made for mate to house his HIFI gear

As im giving up the faggs keeping busy helps a lot so today i put laminated kwila top on a coffee table base i found years ago,with a hell of a lot of sanding and a light oil it came a treat

The wife has been bugging me all year for a outside fire for the garden. So I made her one for Christmas.

Full swing into making shit for myself now,Needed a pair of pipe rollers ,not sure how long them bearing will last tho,i could always make better rollers later I really enjoy machining and thinking about taking night classes to learn what tool does what

My day job has me making stuff for other people and i rarely have time, motivation to build anything for myself .As i needed a pair of speaker stands ,with a bit of ducking and diving and my lunch break ,I put these together I kinda like them unpainted

I havnt got any hs6 but would a pair HS8? (2") be to big?

Hey guys Thank you for those who responded to this post and have private messaged me about possible in Chch. Ive now got one a new job Wayne.

1.2 flux core around 25/30 volts ,Bloody hot work as that harden steel is pre heated to around 200 degs before welding

Shortened truck.This was a neat job

Ive handed in my notice and not taking it back this time. I would like to find a place that works with new builds (tho will look at all options available ) hes a few more pictures .Also have been thinking if there would be the work for a one man band with mobile workshop?

Also started on the floor this is the worst of the rust on thepassenger side drivers side is good. it was cold as all fuck today so this was the best place for a coffee break

Wee update Thought i would give it a good clean with the water blaster before paking in the garage And the paint started to fall off .This is a big set back as i didnt want to paint it at this stage. Shame about the paint but comes off very easy with a broad knife .At some stage someones taken it back to bare metel and under coat is very hard.

First mod on Gran Turismo 1 weight reduction! Theres is alot of surface rust as the old owner started to sand it back and was left outside Wire brash on a grinder should take care of most of it. the worst of the rust in the floor im hoping its not to bad .Ill get the car in the garage this week sometime and dry the car out. And the mighty 4K-EU.im sure theres room for a turbo.

Ive fixed a few small job on the starlet and took it for a hoon and goes bloody well for a 1300 with 300,000km on the clock.So i im going to keep it. The wee hoon that made me want to keep it It looks a bit ruff but almost rust free Frist get the wof sorted .Roll cage and as its efi maybe getting a turbo.

Im using H190 6stud diff from D21 ute (hf43) in my Austin. But would like to use a LSD there is a guy up up the road from me with a heap of 720 and D21 ute and ramdom diff laying around most with no id tags, some diffs with no numbers stamped on the housings and the brakes rusted so i cant turn them over.There is one with a big N1 stamped on the housing LSD? Ive goggled with not much luck, So what im i to look out for? Thanks.

Was needing to bend 7/8' pipe 180deg with a 250mm outside dia so i knocked this up today .Tho not 100% happy as there is a wee kink at the end of the bend
