Gibran- thought for today

Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.

Wax work setup.

Added a 24" x 48" reclaimed wood work surface to lift cart. Mobile but heavy-duty. adjustable height. In center is hot air gun on adjustable post with LED gooseneck and hand/foot pedal control.

Functional and looks pretty neat in person. 

Revision to hand powered sling caster

Added wheel crank rather than bicycle style bar. Much easier to use and smooth in use. Not that other one was dangerous, but this seems better in that regard too.

We grieve Willy's sudden passing at such a young age

Willy on the right side of photo had to be put down today. He was suffering from a bacterial blood infection if unknown origin. He battled bravely over a week and while we grieve being forced to do it,it was the most loving thing we could do for him under circumstances.

He loved playing fetch with his Mousie and pilfering in boxes and bags.

His mate Po will miss him as much as me, Tammy, and all who met him. He knew no strangers.

Rest in Peace Willie !

New and hopefully final tank model

Details to follow, but basic design is:

Safe entry- flat bottom, standing entry, light weight door.

Water filtration system build into tank drains any leaks back to tank but is still easy to access.

Low profile but plenty of space.
