Boots



You have got to love boots and cleaning them is a real joy. Something truely therapeutic about rubbing Nikwax into the leather and buffing once things have soaked in a bit. Now at peace.

Project Abigail - the restart

Abigail has been stuffed in a corner of the shed long enough! This project is in danger of ending up as another pile of scrap and broken dreams.

I decided what was needed was some sort of trolley so I could wheel the old girl about when needed to work on her.


All made and fitted. Now I can start working on her again.
