I've got 40 10 foot fence posts coming.
To cheer me up and hopefully make the job more bearable I've ordered one of these, should arrive tomorrow hopefully.
That and a crate of lager should kick things off..
40 posts ! Did you get the contract for the Mexican border.

This week i received my new battery for the ride on mower, and more importantly a trickle charge for next winter.

I have no conceivable need for one of those, but now I want one !

My next project involves cutting a number of mortises with my trusty little router. I've been playing with templates recently, and looking online there's a number of ways to cut mortises and this appears to be the simplest...
...but the instructions stressed how important it is to line up the pin holes and the cutter perfectly, otherwise the mortise won't be centred. However, the base of my router has four screws holding the base-plate in place, two of which are already centred to the cutter... one pack of 150 m4 machine screws from the pound shop and two of these strap buttons that i had knocking about...
...which just happen to have 4mm holes, and I've got my self centering router guide without the need for any cutting, measuring, drilling or head scratching, for less than tuppence.

Not that interesting, in fact they are boring.
