Long overdue, been busy  :cheers:

Gas forge, got the idea thanks to across the pond turkey friers....recognized a venturi gas burner like my bachelor stove......the rest is a tale of smurf welding and stubbornness  :cheers:

adjustable regulator and camping gas burner.......2 items = half the cost of the build


welder I'm not (yet)

So the belt grinder I ordered, due 15 Jan 2018 was a smurf-up.....spare you the intervening drama, but not long ago I collected the most expensive thing I've ever purchased that was not a car (i.e. financed by the bank)





Had to buy a lot of stuff locally, of the whole tracking assembly they basically supply the....knob  >:D  :rofl:





An old and dear friend...business owner with a VAT import number.....and a proper welder....without him this would not be possible:
