    Great thread this, only spotted it yesterday. Some assume skills on show.

    My contribution is another pizza oven. Nearly finished now, just sorting the render on the base and a roof.

    Nice one – i wish I hadn’t sold all my defunct 26″ rims for £6 on ebay now. A wardrobe ful of those would be spot on!

    Top work Bedmaker. Anything with half a trawler in it good by me.

    It’s nice to think that a decommisioned boat can live on. A friend of the previous owner saw it at the festival, the tag on the side is still just visible. He got quite emotional, although strong drink had been taken 🙂

    Some seriously creative and talented people on this forum. Just finished these, Mrs tthew saw some at the garden centre for £100 each – 😯 – and even though I had to buy the wood they cost about 1/4 of that to make.

    64 wooden slats cut with a hand saw and mite box was quite time consuming mind.

    Not something I’ve made, but for sheer awesomeness and attention to detail, this thread about converting a military truck to a mobile home is amazing.

    Thanks Solarpowered. They look a bit more ‘rustic’ in the flesh, but they’ll be nice once the Box bushes that currently reside in plastic tubs outside the porch are in them.

    What about an 80s Bio-pace revival – only thin / thick to be SRAM XX1 compatible?

    Would biopace work with a clutch mech?

    Well you can still change front chain ring with a clutch mech and that’s a big change in chain slack….
