Wednesday 16th July a nice summers day.

There has been extensive work on the Morris cab with much sheet metal replacement now the rear body sides are off for ease of access, the work is still on going.

            

The plastic on the skittle alley in Honeybourne has gone brittle and is failing so the top has been patched with the curtain and a new plasticard curtain will be made.

                                        

We have been given a stamping machine to make labels and markers this uses a thin aluminium tape that letters are punched into, it looks ok but needs a suitable tape so may be a working exhibit that we can use for tags.

                     

The museum coach screw replacement goes on and on it is time consuming but there is no way around it to preserve the wooden frame from water ingress.          

                          The previous weeks work rubbed down and painted

The top rail is now center of attention requiring even more dowelling fitted for the new screws to grip.

                screws exposed                                              holes filled with dowels

         

                                       The work of filling and rubbing down goes on.

There are loads to do
