Passive Metal Detector - Version 2.0

Used the same handle and made a new 'detector head'


Version 2.0 is sleeker, lighter, handles well and has good penetration...

Camry washer jets blocked - Part 2

The actual jets are clear, turns out both nozzles are internally blocked ??? and I have worked out the likely chain of events. Car was loaned to a family member and during the loan period the washer reservoir ran out of water. Water was added and I presume the washers still would not work cos when I went to use them the other day - nothing.

Rough Collie on stand - part 4

With the first coat of stain on the stand and the doggie ready for the lights we can move over to the electronics/electrical workbench. For this job I've come up with a new hybrid lighting idea anf if it works out I will likely offer as a additional lighting option on Al's Workshop.


Holly had burrs in her paws!

Found burrs buried deep in Holly's back paws so yeah something to keep in mind and check.

Rough Collie on stand - part 3


After trimming off excess on the 8" band saw we are ready for a laborious session on the scroll saw. This will take over one hour and any mistake, one seniors moment and we will have to start all over again. I can't cross my fingers so the toes are crossed.

Another new toy for kitties.
