Imposing, yet not without elegance. The Breguet ‘Deux-Ponts’ was a cargo and passenger aircraft introduced in 1949 and operated by Air France from 1953 to 1972.
Its most distinctive feature is its two-deck configuration.

Finished the Tamiya YZF, a lovely kit from the masters of 1/12 bikes. Pictures are not the best, could not get the lighting right. Yes one shot is with an AI background, and the sharp-eyed among you will spot the wrong colour hand grips.👍😂 😂

That’s a serious piece of kit 👍. The fence adjustment is very precise and accurate and will go up to 0.5m. I’ve bought a 48-tooth blade for it as well.

I’m making a cabinet for a new controller system for my CNC router.

He’s the in-house guitarist for Chicago Music Exchange and there’s loads of his playing on their channel. And he’s from Manchester, Engerland.

No reward, it’s just there to be done. It maxes out soon after so I might as well buy a load more cars now.

I enjoyed that one. Luc Bessons’ films are usually good entertainment 👍😊

Good to know. I’m very impressed with the build quality and design. The fence adjustment is excellent.

New toy 😊. Built like a brick s**thouse 💪.

It replaces an old Clarke machine that was a bit of a nightmare to use.

Today’s moment of calm
I’m about halfway through painting this prickly subject and it’s time to go outside and catch a breath of fresh air.

We are looking at a close up of the Hall from outside. It is a mixture of oak frame and close studding which has been stuffed with yellow ochre plaster. The sun is shining and you can see the tool marks in the plasterwork.

It’s the weekend!

May your Saturday be as gorgeous as this bit of the Hall.

That’s a lovely job. We used to get Air Sea Rescue Sea Kings out of Leconfield flying over here but, sadly, no more.

Aerial view of York Minster – one of Europe’s largest Gothic cathedrals. Began in 1220 & took over 250 years to complete. It houses the Great East Window (1408), the largest expanse of medieval stained glass in the world. Built on a site of Roman and Anglo-Saxon worship #York #aerial
