Managed some good garage time this week although finished results are few. I start a particular job, full of enthusiasm, get bored with it after a few hours and do something else, also partially – it must be an age thing. My garage is a complete mess with lots of part finished jobs and their associated tools littered about the place.
About 5 weeks ago I started to make a “horse” for holding logs so I could hold them securely whilst chain sawing them for use in our wood burner. The design involved a frame from an old piece of gym equipment and a hydraulic car jack with the mechanism reversed so that it pressed downwards on the log. Every day I nearly trip over the jack, or the frame or the angle grinder or the various bits of steel selected to manufacture it from. It will probably sit there until it gets colder and we run out of logs that will fit in the wood burner. The bike obviously comes first.
