Ive only been awake for 70 mins and my eyes are already going out of focus.

Im so pigging tired.

School run, then sleep again.

I wish you best Gary. Get well soon!

I think your just missing some crazy Dutchguys!

I need to get that finished.

It actually worked, but was too badly flawed to be used safely.

Oh go on, give us all a laugh

Thank you Pepperana lol yes. you forgot to pop in on your way back.

Your post cards are still on my kitchen table.

Eel 28...Give you a laugh? No. Not going to. Stamping foot.

Testing it wasnt that exciting and it wasnt even picture worthy. When Ive worked out how to bend the pipes and put it together so it will actually work.... I will post pics of that! Still havent worked out how yet though. Need to soon as Ive even been given the propper pipe for it by Raikey...

Not going to risk his pipe until I get the shape right with rubbish first though.

Its the double direction twist I need at the begining thats causing the problems. I keep kinking the pipe and it goes flat. My mate recons the only way to do it is to fill it with silver sand and seal it prior to bending it. Not sure about that, or how you get sand out of silver either.

My cupboard got raided again.

How come they will only eat veg when they want the tin?

Biggest made the body of his hobo some time ago, but didnt make a heat shield or a grate...

Looks like hes decided to get on with it...

At least he isnt destroying my new scissors.

Apparently, new potatoes taste better if you dip them in honey.

For some reason, it never occured to me to try that.

Almost cut it....

Hate the way tins look after they are cut.

DAAAD! It keeps bending when I try to drill it!

You should have drilled it before you cut it, so it wouldnt bend.

How come I got lumbered

He said he wouldnt feel it if I slipped with the drill.....

Horrible kid.

 

[No Idea]

He is happy drilling on the flat part of the tin though..

 

[Robbi]

welcome back !!!!!!

 

[No Idea]

He is drilling it in circles.

In again...

Nearer the middle...

 

[No Idea]

Done.

Glad that drill bit wasnt quite long enough to drill holes in the work top.

 

[No Idea]

Seems he isnt going to turn the edge and debur it.

Hopefully, he will cut himself on it here at home, so he will know why he needs to do it.

Heat shield..

...now they have eaten all the spuds, that is..

 

[No Idea]

He did manage to summon the energy to take the paper off lol.

Thats it all made except the heat guard for the knuckles when putting the cup on when its lit. Havent quite worked out how yet.

Packing it away....

Its a bit tight. Hope he can get it out again.

Tea stirrers, silver birch bark, cotton wool, firesteel, bits of cardboard.....

Im sure I had some packets of orange hot chocolate around here.

Funny....

They seem to have just vanished.
