Valentine Greetings

fossilera, thank you! *crosses bananas off her shopping list*
I'm across the lakes from you, in SW Ontario. Going to take advantage of this rare sunshine, and get some groceries too!

Love the VW shed Gordi! I used to paint the Harley Davidson logo on things for friends who rode. (Shhhh! don't tell on me!)
I did a bar fridge once, but nothing the size of a shed.

Cody, you big suck-up! Living in the big house now, huh?

Anyone know what's wrong with Serdgiam? No?

Okay....Jane, don't rent out my shed while I'm out. (One Jane in the big house, one Jane in the shed, lol).

Shar pei's as it happens

That way they to waste more money on cream for the skin.

I made reception for a children in need, best quality walnut job, but they wanted it to look like it was reclaimed wood, so I spent 10 minutes driving my car over the timber backwards and forwards in a pebble car park.

Heheh...

It is not a distressed finish, until it's had the attention of Cody and his unique methods, evidently!

No mine didn't take more than 2 days....I've had to refelt the roof though...view from up there was quite cool!....Gordi's shed now on the other hand...he must have had to use masking tape, cos if you look carefully, there's even a very thin line in the green!

One quite often has to think outside the box in my job

It keeps the brain working and gets some hilarious reactions sometimes

OI!

I didn't use masking tape for the pinstripe line!!! The thin white line was added by hand later, because I thought it would look better.

(The straight lines around the windows were however done with masking tape assistance!!! - Guilty on that one!)

PS - It only took a couple of hours!

Thats great for only two days work. The rest of your pics are fabulous too. I love the white dresser. You have me thinking I might jazz up my desk in the summer!

Gordi's shed is great too. There is so much creativity here it's outstanding. I love this forum!

Cody! Welcome home! Your dinners in the oven. I haven't turned it on though, it would melt the packet.

Bikes ?

*Pricks up ears*

Hang on you play guitar, and have bikes, and are on ATS

Were we both adopted perchance ?

That is what I like about working with my hands as well. Granted, you are creating affects, artistic and functional, where as of course, my work is rigidly mechanical. But solving problems in a unique fashion is always satisfying!

Oh go on.....you know you want to!

BRUV!!!!

Bikes in the big shed...
I'm hiding a 1982 CB650 Nighthawk (which I am converting into a CHiPs replica!!!),
a 1980 TS185ER trailie (which was a rough non-runner but is now loverly!),
and a 1979 KE175B3 (which I bought and "did-up" for my pals 40th, only to discover that he'd just treated himself to another trail bike!!) in there.

What exactly is it you do True?.....If I'm not being too rude in asking

As long as it is a challenge

I despise boring work that I can rattle off without having to think, There is of course that element as well, that's when I plug in the Ipod and dance my way through the day, with mega amounts of air guitar.

I am a locksmith. I fix locks, cut keys, do security surveys. I also offer a tool sharpening service, mostly garden equipment and cooking knives, but my main area of expertise is mechanical security (as opposed to electronic measures, like alarms, key fobs, and electronic strike plates). I love stripping down old mortice locks, finding the broken or malfunctioning parts, and either replacing or repairing them.

There is something very pleasing about being able to return an item to the point where it can once again function in the role for which it was designed.

reply to post by Gordi The Drummer


BRO !!!!

Mum always said she kept the good looking one and got rid of me.

You remember the boy sitting the garden with a piece of meat tied to to him so the dog would play him ?

That was me

The memories are flooding back
