Tea? (Part 2)

[Night Train]

A couple of friends came over today to help me move the cast iron bath, from my trailer, up to the second floor en-suite bathroom.
I will need to fit the feet and then sort out the plumbing and fittings.

Very minimalist decor, I must say. Carrying a cast-iron bath up two flights must have been fun!!

For your viewing pleasure - one of Chap-Hop's finest hours!!

It looks perfect, fits just right!

Well done!

I suspect that was played-for-and-got.
Imagine how unhappy you'd be if the bath was an inch too long!!

No excuses now. It's gotta get some use - at least once a year whether you need it or not!! (the old ones are always the best ones )

Tiddles went for a very short run today to test the revised trailer set up. It works very well. If I get the chance I might do a loaded run over the cobbles.

Short 'semi' trailer.

Plenty of wheel clearance.

Extended draw bar trailer.

Can be used as a sack barrow and a hand trolley.

Still flat packs for storage.

Nah. This is NT, he'd just cut a hole on the wall to fit it....


You think I'm joking!

 

[TheDoctor]

Sadly, I *know* you're not!!

That trailer is brilliant. Can I have one please?

There is a waiting list. I have two trailers still to build but I need to do some more load testing yet to see if the brazing of joints is up to scratch. Also I have a new supplier of QR axles and I need to see if the cost saving is at the expense of durability and strength.
Decent small wheels are also a bit costly to come by, unless I use ones with another trailer manufacturer's name on!

Dear oh dear...as you may have seen earlier in the thread, I was recently diagnosed with glandular fever, but it gets worse than that - I'm not allowed to do any sport for three months! I can't do any of the sport I normally do (basketball, tennis, football, it's a long list...!) though the doctor says I'll be able to cycle as soon as I feel well enough, but only commuting to < - > from school, so that means no more 30 milers on a Sunday afternoon at 15MPH across the mountains that are Dartmoor...*sigh*.

It's depressing, I tell you.
