Thread: What are you working on?

Well I think I'll start on these next.
A two day set of 6/8ths.Taylors, in ivory.
Both, cracked at wedge. But only on the B side.
Blades are a bit of a mess, and the box is in dire repair.

This is a project that was sent to me from Mike T, before he disappeared " AGAIN "!!!!
He asked if I would make them live again, since he hasn't the time to do them himself, and couldn't see them rotting away in a drawer.
I found the materials needed to repair this, and the other two day box that's still on the back burner, today. But haven't made the purchase yet.
And I'm in the process of making another " Outback Magna Badger " for a member who desperately needs one.

I don't think the 3M, is gonna cut it on these two. These is gonna need some paper put to um, pretty thin, so I'm expecting some pits.

I'm thinking a couple layers of light weight, woven fiberglass for building RC airplanes, epoxied to the inside of the scales, should be enough to strengthen and stop the scales from cracking any further.

That's a project outback!
MikeT will appreciate them, once/when he returns....
Ahoy Mikey, where u b boy..

He said they were mine to keep. But if he asks, they'll be at his door within the week.

Its funny...but every time I look at a shower, I think about him laying there in the fetal position, bottle of whiskey, piss everywhere. [emoji23] [emoji38]

Awesome pipe mike!

Only took 4 trips through the attic. Just glad it wasn't summertime.

as well as all the rest! !
Outback is taking the ivory challenge!
B52 has made his first pipe! Looks a gem!
And Panama! Good on ya!

Awesome work, Men!

A successful unpinning.
Was surprised to see wear washers upon disassembly,
and nickle silver pins.
Would have figured brass pins, no washers.

So who's got the low down, on Samuel Taylor.?

I expect Samuel Taylor to be a merchant on King St in Manchester.
Martin may be able to shed some light?
