    All I have to do now is assemble it, but I might add a floor of MDF as it feels a bit flimsy....
    OK, so had a good look at this product, and I must say I am not impressed. The base and back are made of a flimsy card product and without any support. You obviously have the top and sides from a frosted plastic. All connections are a fold up type of connection which reminded me of those fold up railway stations made from cut out card where you slot one wall into another... The filters which are supposed to make up the structure are from thin card frames... So when the weather warms up I will construct my own frame and base from MDF and incorporate the filters, extractor and sides/top. Value for money - forget it....

      I made this a long time ago & made a real hash of it - I've a few years more experience now, so hopefully I can make a better job of it this time - an Ebay auction win at a good price

        So although I bought nothing at Telford, I did win this on eBay on Friday night and it arrived today, so very good service.

        However, it was bought with some birthday money I had been given and as that's not for another few weeks, I can't officially do the big reveal until then, so you just have to wait to see what it is! :smiling5:

        Hi all

        So following on from my mystery arrival...I ordered this masking set, which of course gives you an what the general subject matter is but I don't won't to completely give the game away until the big day!

        If you do manage to work out what it is please don't say!

                Needed some new micro saw blades. the older ones are a bit "crumpled" shall we say.
                Some nice new nippers. AK for all the general chop work and the Dspiae (who thinks these names up?).
                The AK give a pretty good cut but the Dspiae! Under half a millimetre thin slices off a sprue. Totally flat and so smooth they look polished.
                While I was ordering those, this 'fell' into the basket.

                  You’ll love the DSPIAE nippers. I think I save a good hour per kit on clean up time using mine.

                                This morning the post room here at Race Towers were having a early morning sleep when suddenly steps of the postman woke them up.
                                A mad rush to the door revealed
