In no particular order Converting jaz's bus from 1600 air cooled to 1900 turbo diesel water cooled Just collecting parts at the moment, then I've got to strip out the wiring and start with the head scratching. Last January I was building an engine from from scratch with spares scavenged around the garden Was cold out there too I pulled the old engine because jaz said it had gone bang in a big way and dropped loads of oil . Turns out the conrod snapped and went out the top of the case and sheared the oil cooler off Attic conversion, semi done already, just need to wire and celotex ( picking up friday night ) Conservatory building ( already got most of it but waiting on a dwarf wall ) Probably more as more disasters appear on the horizon

Old japanese bass to refurbish, Strat (Squier found in a skip by an Albanian labourer) to refurb in "Iron Maiden" style, the Mk2 Chopper I just bought, my Flying V to repair and the indicator swap on the GSX14.
Those plus various "projects" around the house, mostly electrical so real "busman's holiday" stuff.

Thats easy Brett, a trip to wickes for supplies and it's a morning's work I was going to suggest getting some advice at least from Mushroom-the-shed-salvager If you are putting any power in there, don't buy electrical accessories from Wickes!

I took 2 sheds down when I had to move them as my garden is up for sale. Plan was to put them back up in the back yard. But a lot of the wood frames are rotten. Im too skint and too far away from a diy shop to get wood for them. Though now my sister says she knows a sawmill nearby. Heres my silver shed, when it was up in the garden. With some of the wheels that I had in it. The silver sheds a bit smaller than the steel shed. But kind of lost interest in the sheds, so all the panels are just lent against the wall
