What were you working on today?!

[Rocketeer]

Busy day.... I am prepping my Battle of Britain Merlin from a Hurricane shot down in 1940 (August 18th) for a display at the memorial to Flt Lt JB Nicolson VC who won the only Victoria Cross awarded to a RAF Fighter pilot in the Battle and indeed whole WW2. I will displaying the Hurricane's cockpit as well.

Anyhoo, sorted out one of the Merlin's banks. Also started the strip down of a Hawker Hunter nose for rebuild. This was damaged in a birdstrike and will be fitted to the museum's Hunter. Then some gardening and a re-org of my workshop! Relax tomorrow!

Working at work today for a couple of hours, we had stocktake on the Friday. 120 quid extra though, unfortunately, it'll go to bills.... Maybe I can sneak some away for some decals and paint.

Sat around at the car dealership while my wife's 4runner had an iPod jack installed and state re-inspection done right this time. Didn't have to pay a penny. The worked in the garage on converting a dead harddrive into a clock and stripped usable parts out of an old PC before chucking the case out on the curb, trying to reclaim space in my garage.

Spent yesterday searching for a new pair of boots and found a decent pair. I don't have a clue what today holds though.

Funny you should mention making clocks our of old [and I mean old] hard drives. I use to make and sell
wall clocks make from the old Seagate 40 megabyte hard drives. Attached are pic's of two I have left, a
desk clock make from an old MiniScribe 40 megabyte HDD. The plastic parts were cut with a jig saw from
a sheet of 1/4 inch and 1/8 inch sheet plastic.

The other one is a wall clock, with Westminster chimes in it, that hangs in the computer room
Thats the last pick down.

They show the correct time, today when the pic's were taken.
