This rather nice collection of engines and spares arrived today, three complete engines and loads of bits, plus some useful literature and dealer tags... Engines now on the display with the others.

Nostradamus quatrain 103 reads "Paul will need more shelf space soon"

Not quite a Tot Rod but a Black Hood Wheel Horse look a like, sort of. Based on a Pride Celebrity scooter bought cheap as a non runner. Info said 6.25 MPH. Larger rear wheels make it faster. Steering wheel in place of the tiller with a dummy V twin engine to hide the scooter steering column. Chain and sprockets from column to wheel. 2 x 12 volt 75 amp battery's so should give a good run. Still needs decals. Only had short test run so far. Photo's of Grand daughter having a play. She loved it.

Looking good Norm & Dunc.

Bit of a catch up. Since the last post, the workshop at the other property has been emptied along with house etc. Back to Dunc's on last Wednesday. Mezzanine floor to erect. Also some shelving to assemble. Timber for Mezzanine floor being delivered Thursday morning. So shelving was seen too. Thursday morning arrived but no timber. We did get the remainder of the racking assembled while waiting for the timber. Most is in position. Timber arrived just after lunch. Centre up right in place with box beam installed. After fitting stronger timber along opposite sides to support the floor trusses, the first floor truss was fitted in place. Only another 19 to go. Dunc did make an error when ordering trusses and brackets. Only ordered 20 brackets instead of the 40 we'll need. Hopefully get more brackets tomorrow and get all trusses in place. The area in the photo' above will be an internal workshop. Friday. Did well to day with the mezzanine floor. The shortage of brackets, was solved by fitting the floor trusses on the other side, on top of the support beams. Doing this had an advantage as it raises the floor, just enough to clear the digger roof if it ever needed to be worked on there. All brackets and trusses secured over the internal workshop. All trusses now in place except for the missing one front left. That will have to be fixed inside the uprights with brackets. End of play for now. Floor boards to be ordered. They'd be fitted later sometime next week. Electricians starting Monday.

I really like that Alan. I see it's big enough for you to ride round on. And with the box on the back handy for you to do the shopping.

Well that’s some collection you have there now paul
