Oddjob:
Well those look nice Roo.
Good news for me too.
Will finally get round to assembling the workmate so I can do some polishing. Picked this up today.
Finished the alloy braces, painted all the logos and even did the little holes as well. Took me ages.
Just finished painting all the other bits that required it. I'll post a pic of it assembled once it's done. Not sure yet whether to varnish the new worktops or to just leave them as they'll get hammered anyway.

kin wl Ken, thats the swingers mate. Never mind the varnish I was expecting OEM transfer of the 'Rule' down one side, 180 degree angle finder in the middle and associated decals. Get it varnished or at least danish oil it, it'll make it a bit more supple and will dent rather than split when you miss what you're tw*tting ;D
Laverdaroo:
Besides, that's not the right black, wrong colour code, rookey mistake ;)
;D
Oddjob:
The rebuild did not go well. The frame is built but the wood isn't mounted yet, my idea of improving the way it mounted onto the frame just didn't pan out. So more parts on order and try again. Getting a little sick of this now ;D ;D
Laverdaroo:
Bloody hell Ken, why did you try to modify it? I thought B&D did quite a good job at the design in the 70's why would you wan to change it?...............stop fiddling with stuff! ;D ;D ;D
