So what you're telling us is that not everything in your house is hung as well as the bedroom door

Biting into you probably didn't do the spiders any favours either
Hope you gws... I found a huge one in my garden a while back, poisonous or otherwise it looked like it wanted to eat me!!
WMMST... excuse to use my lathe to make some parts for a pal's Triumph bobber project. two seat spring supports in stainless (I think from the weight they will knock 5mpg off the economy of the bike  ) and a pair of mild steel lugs to attach the rear mudguard to sissy bar.
Came up with a genius method of driving the cross slide to get a good finish on the taper - cordless drill and socket driver bit as my lathe has only powered surface and face feed.   |
And here's one of the Seat spring supports being offerred up...
The other lugs were welded to the sissy bar to attach the rear mudguard...

250 miles of riding in the sun, a not surprising too short a stop at Oakdene, making a last minute decision stop at Box and running into a few folks (thanks for the Pepsi Slippery, sorry I rode off without saying cheerio) followed up with no coffee with the Capt.

France v All Blacks - great game - I thought like many a walk over for the All Blacks - how wrong can you be!
Couple of hours out on the bike today for the first time since the start of August
