Amazing workmanship. Did you manufacture all the parts? you must have a dream workshop.

Hello Walt,

I would love a 'dream workshop', unfortunately all I have is a 12 foot x 8 foot garden shed and plenty of time on my hands. :D :D :D

Thanks to all for the kind words, the site and it's members certainly give amazing encouragement.

Best Regards Ron Mc

No3 finished building, just need to 'set up' and do the tweaking.

Best regards to all
