Carpbell_ll 597 Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 So my plans for a lathe in my cupboard have been shot down, not really fair to have a lathe on the other side of me neighbors living room, so not to be beaten by the woman i knocked this up, i give you the Floating Podtm you can set it up in any swim and drop anchor, it is just a working model at the mo until i can get some water camo piping. commonly 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Its a good idea, when you say drop anchor will it stay rigid my only concern may be that the alarms would be Constantly going off due to the waves and movement on the surface of the water moving the bobbins, good thinking though 👍 Its-grim-up-north 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You would need to invent some bite alarms that have pan pipe sounds or other weird hippy vibes to make that relaxing 😂, Nash will do a drum and bass bite alarm when that goes off, it will go off 😎😎😎🤯 commonly and Carpbell_ll 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

smufter 2,228 Posted July 25, 2020 Report Share Posted July 25, 2020 (edited) Finally managed to get the new retaining wall finished this week. Hard work!! Looking a bit of a mess again at the moment, but apparently it's supposed to get worse before it gets better!!! Got to level the soil in the top tier by backfilling behind the wall this coming week, and also going to put a smaller retaining wall around the tier on the right behind the boulders. Should be fun. And a lot more light getting on the garden now that the big tree has been taken down. New shed on order to replace the monstrosity you can see. Going to look a lot better when that's in place!
