Flaring


Just a tiny bit of work downstairs today flaring the ends of some pipe for the press handles. Heating the end and driving it on to the little post in the background. It was galvanised pipe, so the zinc burning off was very sparkly. Sammy went in for his mock written test for driving and passed that, so he should be able to go in for the real thing soon. It was raining all day again, so I gave the chap a lift to the test center and then went on form there to visit a friend who lives further up the mountains, but he was out, so had a chat to his misses and then picked up sammy on the way back.
The owl saga is resolved, the school principle was right, I went back to the internet and found the night heron to be a dead match voice wise, then went out in the drizzle this evening and got a good silhouete of the mut flying. Hey ho.

Charcoal and a bit of colored chalk on cartridge
