Jez Posted March 9, 2008 Author Share Posted March 9, 2008 Wow, amazing comments. Thanks to everyone. Yes FB there are some channels, I can get a pic if neds be but they are just made from box section with a slot cut out. I'm glad that makes sense now Matty, it's quite an opening but needs to be as you can see Mandy, as ever, thankyou and hope holly is coping with out my forklift driving ;) * Thanks MDford, just needs that 3650 in there too with the modern machines to really se it off ;) Cheers Renault Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 top work jez, hope its the first of many sheds we see from you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 It looks the bor licks mate. Nice how you can roll the door up part way and pin it there so it does't go slack on the roller or slide back down again. I can't ewait for my farm to head up a few more decades so I can build things liket his Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 looks very very good mate let me get this right , the card is in side rails , & then attatched to the bar with holes to pin it in position but to open the door the bar has to be removed from the pins to be opperated ? not that it really matters jez ,it still looks very effective,& realistic :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bar at the top is fixed into the beam not onto the roller but it would work either way like you suggested. The only reason for the brass box section is to stop it bending when it is all rolled up and looking open. Any questions, fire away and i'll get some better pics. Failing that I hope to send or take it to spalding and eventually have my whole set up there, possibly next to Tris' for a nice past / present set up.

Jez Posted March 22, 2008 Author Share Posted March 22, 2008 A small up date, some more to come tommorrow morning. I have fitted the trunking for the wires for the welder today and added some detail to the welding table. Looks a bit more used now ;) Tommorrow: A few more safety signs and the junction box for the workshop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDFord Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 Brilliant detail Jez, liking the filings on the bench around the vice. Sounds like you are expecting a visit from your friendly \ Health + Safety Man with more signs on the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted March 23, 2008 Author Share Posted March 23, 2008 As MDFord said, we had a visit from the local H&S man last week. I needed some more safety signs around and he also said I need some welding screens so anyone walking into the workshop won't get "arc eye". I used some clear plastic sheets painted red. If you hold them up to the light they are see through but not that clear in the pics. I might get some red lens covering sheets and make some more. Also got the junction box wired in and the warning sign nexxt to it ;) AAAAAAAAAAnyway, here are the pics: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jez Posted March 23, 2008 Author Share Posted March 23, 2008 As you can see I have got a worker inside finally. I took him from the 7430 and rested him on my heater then bent and straightened his legs so he stands up. I like him as he has JD overalls on, they are standard issue for any JAG staff :D 8) ;) The last couple are of the Junction Box and an overall shot. Enjoy ;) :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
