Skinny jeans?

 

These I bought on saturday, one for desktop, one for laptop on desktop use (shared monitors) and the small one for TV-use when sitting on the couch (when I buy one).

And this I bought few hours ago:

 

Ah, Laphroaig, my all-time favourite.

 

Yariko: If you enjoy the L10, try the Quarter Cask next. One of my all-time favs.

 

Thanks for the tip, I'll get one if I can find it.

 

I don't intend to buy skinny jeans, it's just that every pair in my size is tight around the thighs and calves.

 

An Axminster ZX25M Milling Machine (Second Hand):



That will go with my lathe I bought several months ago:



In my new workshop:




It's an 8' x 8' (2.4m x 2.4m) shed with a stable door (To allow me to get some air in there and keep the cats out. Paws + swarf = unhappy kitties). The interior is going to get insulated with foil backed solid board foam, and then a skin of OSB will go over that. Then I'll be building some benches for the machine tools, and getting a sparkie to come out and hook up some power.

Then I'm all set to make expensive brillo pads and odd shaped door-stops.

 

^^ MAN CAVE.

 

YUP.

 

You need a 'No girls allowed' sign over the door..

 

So Goo-ster 2.0 will be a complete scratch-build?

 

Morgan clone! Build the chassis yourself.

 

Wanted a new camera so I thought I would treat myself. Took delivery of this last week:



Nikon D7000 with 18-105mm lens kit.

Also got a UV Filter, additional battery and IR remote.

Very happy with it

 

That's a D7000, not D700. Congrats though.

and this


and these


just hope she dont noticed the bill

 

Yeah my bad, typo!

 

Is that for inside or outside? If it's inside I think you'll probably spend more time masking and cleaning up than you would if you just brushed it.

 

Oh God! My partners old man is going to love this! He's into his wood turning big time! He has just dropped £3.5K on this...(He lives around the corner from Axminster Tools, so as you can imagine, he's in there all the time...)


I have to say, he knows what hes doing! Here's some of his work;


And a pen he made me.
