I am thinking about it – well, making an improved folder inspired by the Brompton – but at the moment it’s easier to modify existing Bromptons. They have the economies of scale for things like catches and pivots.
Me, my dad, and a bloke from South Shields called Peter Brown. Made 3 of these so far, this is a picture of the first. The latest has longer pneumatic and electrical boxes on the front and different mountings for the guide lasers.
The latest was installed and commissioned on Friday.
Ok, it’s not flashy or even that big (i have got my bikes and the kids bikes plus my fishing gear and a load of other stuff in it though!), but i did build it from out of a pile of random bits of wood.
And it’s my first attempt at building anything 😆
Also it survived ‘hurricane force’ winds yesterday 😉
Not made, more of a put up. My £800 ebay purchase conservatory. Had to lower the height of the roof, as the house it came from was absolutely massive, and we hadn’t got the height.

Recycled from a fence that was in the garden when we moved in. We bought a piece of the neighbours garden, which is 5 inches deep in the red chips you can see, and it’s about 150m2. That’s gonna be a fair bit of barrowing!. This ain’t it’s final position, my shed is going there. Takes 6m3 of logs, and I’ve two others that take 4m3 each, so I reckon I can fit 3 years wood in them. I’ve just got the roofing felt to go on.
This bed is my latest creation, currently en route to Australia! Pic by our very own bikey phographer, Joolze Dymond! [/url] JD4_2907[/url] by nealcrampton[/url], on Flickr
what your not a professional coat-hook maker househusband?
Nope, I’m a ‘Technologies’ (as we’re now known under the new ‘Curriculum for Excellence in Scotland) secondary teacher – so I’m an utter amateur amongst contributors here!!!
