......Talking of bits sent to you, did you ever get that extractor thing built?

 :y Yes thanks, `sure did and it works a treat; really moves some large volumes of air as the TIG & ARC welding fumes go flying straight out of the wall-vent at high speed!
Running it off a tractor battery (huge) via a relay; I eventually settled on a 40 Amp. fuse because the 30 Amp`s aged and failed after a few starts......You`ll see it works well if you`re able to come to the Deb`s gaff meet this season. ;)
Thanks again Jaime. :y

Am going to jump in here.

I have no doubt that Dan was 100% when he made all the commitments.  But as most of you will remember he went through a very rough time with his Mum suffering a stroke and his Dad becoming ill at the same time.

His Mother went on o suffer a heart attack after that and for a while it seemed to have sorted the affects from what the stroke caused.  From what I first picked up I thought she may have been on the mend and so did Dan for a while.

Sadly the improvement didnt last and from what I can gather he lost his Mum shortly after.

There is more and yes it is sad, but I dont feel it is my place to talk about it, I am sure if and when Dan returns he will explain all.

If you paid for any items and didnt get them then PM me and will see what I can sort.

Other than that and under the circumstances I am sure we all understand that life doesnt allways work out the way we plan and even with the best intentions at the time I am sure all the parts would have been sorted as agreed.

Playful-doggies, sheep/lambs and runner-ducks and all safely-away from traffic; `plenty to occupy your couple of 'tiddlers' during the meet. :y

The 500 metre driveway (rocky-track) is my only real problem for the meet; it`s badly water rutted and I fear the lower-set cars (and pikey-wagons) may drag their undercarriages and do themselves damage.
I`ve arranged the loan of a 5 Ton excavator (and I have an old rock quarry in one of my fields), so I`ll be turning into a civil engineer and making major road-repairs in a couple of weeks.....then we`ll be all set!  ;)
