Man cave Project !

23 Nov 2019, 3:37pm
I'm still waiting on my 275 project to come back from the paint shop. The garage has been revamped with new floor paint and white washed walls.
Still bored waiting so I decided on a project with a pile of rubbish that was about to go down to the dump.
A bit of lateral thinking needed but it is something I had thought of a while ago. Only had two items to buy, the rest made from the pile of junk. I also found a stainless steel bowl in the kitchen ( don't tell the wife ! ).

Come back tomorrow for the next instalment, can you tell what it is yet ?

Nope ! But I found some old spark plugs that might go in the mix !

An artistic plant pot holder, for easy access to small parts.

Satin black paint and aerosol expanding foam was needed too. Lots of tube cutting , 14 straight sections of 1/2" stainless tube.

Just waiting on the circular glass top I've ordered through ebay, but otherwise its about finished ! 6 hours and a just few quid invested !

very cool!

Thanks ! Its 24" diameter so makes the ideal coffee table. I saw a full size Pratt & Whitney radial engine converted to a table. It was fabulous but so was the price at over £10k !

Why did you tell us? GRR! I had figured it out looking at the picture, and then you gave the game away. Very nice!

Really good show. When I am between projects I am trying to tidy up, but the next project starts about half way through!
