Purchased this rotary tool from ALDI for $

Greyhound drink stands - part 1

Family request to make two elevated water dog bowl stands for three greyhounds, one for inside the other outside.

This one pops up when searching the web for ideas so I’ll base my design on that and make it higher – grey height.

BlitzWolf BW-HL2 smart watch - 2

As posted I am mainly interested in the notifications side of things, in particular promptly responding to enquires from Al's Workshop or Markeplace. Feeling a bit more comfortable now that I found a review that reports on this in more detail.

Technology purchase-

After a lengthy period of mulling decided to get this A3 printer for printing cutting templates and photo print backgrounds for photo frames plus other nifty stuff.

I will now of course be able to offer larger silhouette night lights and bigger bats and not have to stitch together A4 pages or fool around with fiddly poster print settings.

Bunnings spray paint - bloody awful.

Bunnings Fiddly Bits spray paint - bloody awful.

Bad weather so spraying the last bat in the carport.

Parcel deliveries

WOW... parcel delivery yesterday and other one just now...more Batman LED lights



System is working well hand appears over fence with slow release of package into dish washing tray then press of video intercom button followed with wave to ET who is usually on the balcony.

Aerosol spray paint

As posted running low on flat black spray paint and with Caribbean Market now permanently closed (bugger) where do I now get my spray paint for $1.50 a can – for 10.

Bought three cans from Bunnings during my shopping trip. Bunnings price $3.98 and SuperCheap Auto even more expensive @ $4.39

Al’s Workshop – International orders

Auspost International - Economy Air

Al's Workshop - International orders

With regard to the UK Batman order just checked postage to UK and it's under $30, not bad considering I've been posting Batman to country folks happy to pay the $20 for postage.

So...with agreement about the current state of affairs I'll take her order shipped without batteries and need to check if Bunnings MDF timber will pass through customs etc....LOL

Too bloody hot

Workshop activities curtailed for the next few days…phew.

Scroll saw clean out

After using this for the last couple of days the easiest way to clean the saw is take it outside and give it a blast with the cordless blower.

I don’t bother with any dust extraction.

Al's Workshop updates

Batman is ready to fly away.
Rough Collie with remote control off to new home.
Hot Wheels sign is next up.

Hot weather slowed things down a bit with 40 plus temps in the workshop (down tools) but we are rolling again.

At Bunnings today bought a Arlec ceiling fan which I will install tomorrow.

Al's 8" band saw - what's that noise ???

This is my 8" band saw that I made in 2017.

Multifunction Belt Clamp

 

With all the work I'm doing with picture frames this is a great addition to the tool cabinet.

Copyright symbol stamp

I posted if anyone knew where I could get one of these and there was no response.

Not to worry cos in the meantime I sent off a e-mail request to Blackburn Rubber Stamps for a quote yesterday and just got a reply.

Happy with that so I'll send back a confirm to go ahead with the job.
