Having taken the cold, wet winter months off, I’m kicking off the wood prep workshop on what looks to be a cold, wet wintry Sunday this weekend!

Partly due to the weather and partly due to the amount of jobs needing to be done at the workshop, we’ll be staying at the workshop.

The usual time of 1pm to 4pm still applies but I plan to be there from 10am so if anyone prefers the morning feel free to join me.

Jobs to be done include:

• Make new bars on all the lathe legs to make them easier to move by pallet truck
• Clean and reorganise the wood prep area
• Continue wiring the lights and sockets in the new work room (Roger)
• Move the shop and work bench
• Take the rubbish over to the tip
• Move the measuring tool board from behind the finishing cupboard
• Assist with gloss painting (please bring any spare paint you have)
• Create something to hold the TVs, camera and spot lights on the new ceiling
• Create new brackets and put the electric heaters back up
• Tidy up the cupboards and lathe boxes to make sure everything is in the right place
• Replace mug cupbard in the kitchen

There’s probably more, that just a few things that spring readily to mind.

See you there!
