Things are moving apace
The fine weather has meant we can get on with a number of jobs.
Pleased to say the two windscreens are back in the Morris commercial,
the left hand window is sitting awkwardly in the bottom right corner.
It was a hard job seating the glass into the rubber seals this time
but I may take the wind screen out to see if the aperture needs making a little larger.
Slugs and snails always wreak havoc on green veg shoots and they are supposed to dislike copper, so i have been cutting large copper rings to go around vunerable shoots using the antique pipe cutter donated to us by fellow blogger, Keith Taylor.
Good to see it being put to good use after many tears.
Some ongoing repairs, cutting out rust, making and shaping steel patches and welding them in to the Morris cab.
Just to say Keith and I highly rate the Lidl Parkside, Inverter welder that we use.
It out performs anything we have used before, simple, good easy welds, and was less than £100.
Finally Chris Sturgeon, GWSR machine handler loaded the remaining Great Western Railway
Water pipe fittings on to the newly restored Scammell flat bed trailer recreating a typical, period, load in readiness for the fantastic, Cotswold Festival of Steam gala taking place this Bank Holiday weekend.
