Hmmm....

Saw this chocolate powder pot in Tescos and sort of had to have it....

 

[No Idea]

Saw this potato tin and had to go find my secoteurs....

Need to find out what happened to the tin snips. I have got some somewhere....

Ive checked in the fridge and in most of the saucepans, but havent found them yet.

 

[No Idea]

Er.....

Thats a bit jagged....

 

[No Idea]

Ive finished chomping off an inch of the tin.

It fits in the chocolate pot.

 

[No Idea]

I dont like that edge, so Im truning it out with these pliers..

 

[No Idea]

Having turned it, Im rolling it over with this socket.

The socket has a groove in it to keep it from slidinginto my fingers.

 

[No Idea]

Ive got an anvil.....

Somewhere.....

Forgotten.

So....

Im putting this hammer in the vice so I can use that as an anvil.

Apparently, you shouldnt hit hammer faces together as they can shatter.

However, these are panel beaters hammers, so the faces are soft.

Im turning the lip over and deburring it (flattening any sharp bits so they cant cut me).

 

[No Idea]

I tried a tin that just fitted, but it sprang so wide it was useless to me.

Another potato tin, the same diameter as the one Ive just shortened, made the thing on the left.

The shorened one is next, followed by a cup from Bilmo, then the chocolate pot.

 

[No Idea]

THe cup fits in the 1 inch tall tin nicely.

The potato tin that sprung open when I cut it fits into the chocolate tin, with a nice interference (stays where you put it), fit.

 

[No Idea]

Ive bent the top two corners just a bit, so I can get this back out

Its just the right length to allow the lid to shut. Need to debur it though.

The cup and base fits easily inside.

Happy!

 

[No Idea]

Right.....

So, if I sort that 1 inch base to let air through...

 

[No Idea]

....And pull the shield up to here.....

THe cup....

Should fit in here...

...And...

With a hole in the front...

So I can feed it, I should have a baby hobo.

 

[No Idea]

So...

Drilling the holes so I can cut out the window...

Then there was this CRUNCH.

Balls.

My last drill bit broke.

Cant get any more for a while.

Irritating.

 

[gsfgaz]

that's a shame , that was turning oot a nice wee stove aswell , ah well back ti yer boat ..

 

[No Idea]

Lol....

Brainwave....

My Dremmel...

 

[No Idea]

I was taught how to sharpen drill bits when I was a kid....

Hadnt thought of trying it on such a small bit, or with a dremmel with sandpaper instead of a bench grinder....

Have to get one of the kids to hold it so it doesnt dance...

 

[No Idea]

Looks like it worked.

Heres the holes going in the "Grate"...

Im doing them in rings...

 

[No Idea]

I need a ring of holes round here to let the air under the grate so it can come up under the fire, as the pots got no holes in the bottom.

 

[No Idea]

Time to drill the pot, so the air can get under the grate....
