The non-slip shelf lining piece is a great tip! Thank you.

Not sure what 'non-slip shelf-lining' is. Is this something you put onto the wall-brackets to preven glass-shelves from moving?

I personally probably would have made myself a clamp to tie down the material to be cut, similar to what you have on those full-size miter-saws. I have such miter-box, but tend to go for high-tech solutions (lathe) in such cases 😁

Beautiful work Gary. I particularly like the detail of the paint damage around the latch. Wonderful.

No, it's a product that one would place on a shelf or the bottom of a draw to keep items stationary and organized.  Works great in rolling metal toolboxes so your open-end wrenches/spanners stay put and in order.  People use it under scatter rugs on slippery hardwood floors.  Many uses in the woodworking shop.

So would I - if I had one.  Thanks for your comment Wefalck and for swinging by to take a look.

Excellent weathering, Gary!

Super eye for the detail Gary. Just love the little touches of wear and shading. Nice substitute for the copper wire too. Like it.

Awesome work Gary, 

 

I'm especially amazed by that celophane tape trick. Never seen that before, but the result is astonishing. 

Love the port holes as well, very sharp execution!
