John Hi John. As if....... Believe it not, nope. The cutting mat was the location of the weathering session. I just tidied up as I went along. If I don't, it's carnage and I end up as weathered as the wagon. Therefore after each step, a quick tidy and move on to the next. Rob. 7 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrWolf Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 I generally go with the "Bulldoze-a-clear-section-of-space-when-taking-a-photo" approach. I can't say that I recommend it. I also don't understand how or why my benches for wood and iron based projects are immaculate and the little model making bench is an utter f.... 2 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to have vanished - it was alleged that the EU had something to do with it. There may be another explanation! In the 1980s when our boys were young, we used to get to use my sister's house in Burnham-on-Sea for our summer holidays, when they went north to her in-laws. One year when her older son had stayed on and was living with us, the local butcher was selling Lymeswold which had a money off voucher on it. The voucher was actually for more than the butcher was selling it for. So our nephew and our older son bought large amounts of it. We took our share home to London but my sister came home to find a large part of her smaller freezer packed out with it. The larger chest freezer was packed with fish my brother-in-law had caught but he never ate fish and he caught far more than the rest of the family could eat. 1 2 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't tell the difference between the interior of the wagon and the chopping board! In fact, I'd suggest that the interior of the wagon was real wood and the chopping board wasn't! 1 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
