Thank you @VerityNichols for donating bike maintenance tools, specially chain whip and cassette remover. They got me out of jail on a Sunday. Much appreciated.

Thank you to @mouat and all the @turners for saving wood shavings for me. This is their destination - a compost loo in the nature garden at Bessemer Grange Primary School, built by @Paul_Andrew, that enables families to spend hours in the garden after school and at weekends when the school is closed.

thanks to @CriticalTolerance for sealing up the gaps in the wood workshop extraction system, and cleaning as he went. Also for his unnervingly neat blackboard writing abilities…

Beat me to it - thanks for pitching in with this. Hopefully the tablesaw will be a bit better extracted now!

Goes without saying we all appreciate your efforts in getting all that awesome cut-price timber for us. Top job from a top bloke. Cheers mate!

Seconded! Early start, epic drive & mind-frazzling maths puzzles all competed with great good humour and generosity. Thank you.

Thanks to @lewisss for squaring up the Tormek stone the other day with the ‘truing’ attachment. Stanley plane blades now sharp AND square. Lovely stuff.

Thanks to @Jonty_Bottomley for a multitude of things…
Stepping in to host open evening last night in spite of having his own projects and being a bit knackered – a tough one too: with guests arriving over the evening…and about three tours given!
Also for helping me out with the shade sail repair, which of course spiralled out into troubleshooting the sewing machines.
Plus: he set about improving the open evening signs!

No worries, did you manage to finish it?
Not quite…kept bending needles…and decided to pick up some light coloured thread so my messy stitching doesn’t show up. What should I be looking for? Nylon?
Or polyester. Anything that won’t rot and fall apart given it’s going outdoors.
I’ll try getting round to sorting that area and working out what we have and need at some point.
Thanks as always to @joeatkin2 for assistance in planing off the large pile of beams I laid my hands on.
