yo fellow luddite, bought a new blade for my surform today to hack some more chunks out of my first build in order to "make it better". hack, scrape, chip and splinter. thats the way!

Cheers for the request and it was a pleasure to meet you at the weekend. A fellow luddite hitting bits of wood with other bits of wood and sometimes metal when we are feeling fancy. There's got to be a competition in that - who can make a servicable cbg using the most basic of tools - axes at the ready boys!

Hey Bro glad to hear you got home safe and sound , wow a nine hour train ride thats going some ! - talk about Flat arse blues lol!

Good to meet you this weekend mate. Got home rooted through the booze cupboard and found a very nice 12 yr old Glenlivet - better than that it was in a tin presentation box. Weird shape sort of roundy triangular but I think I have figured it. That is now on the list for the dark nights

Will have to do it again some timel
