This is Part 1 which is quite short because I only started after work, yes I actually work while working from home. Also I got to a bit where I had to wait for glue to dry.
The Jedi tricks at the end are filmed using the same special effects techniques as the original movies
Shit yes!!
With WCA wearing flip-flops? Shit no.
You new here?
I thought this was going to be a golf related thread.
**** yeah 🙂

Disagreed with me
Ha ha!
That made me laugh, thank you 🙂
*She actually tripped in the garden and broke two fingers. Very painful but recovering now
Sticking your neck out a bit with this one?
You can watch an albatross in the making here... (live stream)
And here is Part 2....
As an aside the wife just asked WTF am I going to do with it as it has no space in our garden and I realised I haven't a clue.
If someone near Southampton wants an albatross in their garden then PM me. I can paint it or leave it for you to paint to your own design. First come, first served (as if there will be a queue)
"I thought rubber has to be be kind of rubbery"
Love it.
Was the gaffa tape a joke or a serious long term attempt? 🤣
recovering now
Good the hear, I do hope it wasn't something that you left lying around... it was wasn’t it? You’re barred from the house so living in the workshop making seahorses, sheep and albatross!

"And the Southampton local was found lying in a powertool-induced pool of his own blood, surrounded by what police describe as a collection fetish animals"
I'm not saying it's the future, just that WCA should be careful with power tools.
Also, good work!
Great stuff!
Gaffer tape was to see if there was even a remote chance of it working before I tried anything move permanent.
Anyone want to buy a big bird - going cheep!
Delay to Part 3 as I went down to the garage after work and there was no undercoat or exterior gloss*
Normal service to be resumed shortly
*Never happens on The Repair Shop 🙁
Mrs Ambrose is seriously impressed. Looks like I'm off to see how much ply is in the shed.
This one is available if you want it. Mrs WCA has serious Albatross superstitions I have discovered
Get your Sunday morning fix..... How to make an albatross - the conclusion
See the art installation in place and watch the crowds flock to see it.
Just brilliant.
but only just 🙂
Nice one! Next up, how to make squirrel pie 😀
👍
Just be careful covertly filming kids in a park! 🤣
Got parents blessing when I went over and explained.
They almost thought they had met Banksie when I said it was my gift as public art
Fabulous!
Jaffa Cakes, RC Cars, Board Games and WCA videos. The highlights of lockdown.
I got messages from one of the lads at the Southampton Bike Park saying his mates kid brother had pulled the string and the wire holding one wing up had snapped.. He was very sorry.
I said that it was fine and replaced the wire with two gear cables which should be much more resilient to flex, sunshine and Jack's kid brother
