Cheers BenZ: I'm looking forward to receiving my swap piece - Ive run an extension cord out to the letterbox so I can still browse. Still no sign of postman yet.. :wink:

Tipua: Long time no see; good to hear form you. I was just chatting to a post of yours from a long time ago, over in 'Tamas workshop'; sorry I took so long to reply.. It's funny, that last one you called Tangaroa (LLT/Koru-nose) is one that I reckon has finally turned a corner back toward Maori-esque-ness (?) and has sparked a cunning plan.. Stay tuned.

Timid: Im afraid Ive never seen it/Penelope? - I was expecting a remark on that nasal appendage from a local chap I know but it didnt eventuate (yet?).

JP: Before and after shots of diamond cloth effects? Sure, I'll find a suitable project & will get some before the end of the week.
1000 posts?? I had no idea until just now - Yay!! :) :) :) *Does Hanford send out a hat or sumthin? :lol:

Seeksurf: Cheers - Im hoping little is big this year! :D

And finally - WORKSHOP MONTH!!

You can find a pretty good rundown on my workshop/tools etc back on page 1 or 2 of this thread so Im really just here to show you how much messier and cluttered it is since you last saw it..

wiring and water-lines:

cyber-cafe: (where Im sitting right now - spooky! :o )

admin/accounts:

Believe it or not; that blue 'surface' with black legs in the centre of this photo, is actually a silversmiths bench. You can see how often I use it these days.. The space underneath this bench is frequently used - for storage. *Note spotless, empty rubbish bin..

The Centre of the Universe:

The corner of my bench - a special and sentimental place; one of the few surfaces that is usually reasonably free from clutter; the place where I most often see and hold my babies for the last time..
