Holly update - one week since her SCL op

Holly update - one week since her leg op and when we arrived home this afternoon from shopping she was at the front door looking through the foyer window with her new toy that we bought last week that has been lying next to her bed untouched since last Tuesday - another good recovery sign :-)

DIY Twin Floor Lamp - Part 1

Some time ago bought a couple of LED downlights with 240V plug leads. Finally decided to do something with them – a twin floor lamp. This will stand between the two mitre saws that are parked at the front of the workshop against the roller door.

Found a piece of plywood the right size.

Holly update

Out for a break and a pee. Amazing how she can still take care of business. As already posted she is booked in on Monday at Boronia with Tony for cruciate ligament surgery and this time will stay overnight.

14” Bandsaw – Blade tracking knob

The saw is basically finished and now has it’s own parking spot on the floor.
Got onto one of the last little jobs this afternoon, the blade tension knob which is still just a screw nut.

Marked out on some scrap MDF a 40mm radius circle, then counter punched around the circumference at 90° intervals – and the centre. Bored four 15mm holes with a Forstner bit which will provide for finger grip. Then cut out the knob on the bandsaw, yes…the saw is making it’s own parts.

Another new toy for kitties.
