Wow, references to Michelangelo, Anthony Caro, Picasso, It's a shame Brian Sewell is no longer with us, we'll have the get Will Gompertz or Andrew Graham-Dixon to interpret these wonderful pieces of art for other devotees.
For myself, I'd reluctantly part with my workshop's gantry crane for the same £2.54M that Tracey Emins unmade bed fetched at auction a while ago. My gantry crane took me a day to fabricate, a few hours to paint, and a couple of scary hours to rig, so it does have a lot of 'artistic' input.

Thank you David, I tried a reverse image search but my Google-Fu is obviously inferior to yours... With regards to my own workshop it currently resembles Steptoe & Sons facility, I am having a long delayed declutter.

I did a simple Google search for Michelangelo O ring and it came up, brilliant photography!

Momentoes, posters, key ring collection, tools, parts and a lot of junk. 50+ years of an obsession. But what else would you do.

Is that the ecological version of the 2CV engine? It's very green...

Hi Peter S
Do you survive without a lathe?

Finest Lidl's Green. Spare engine built up. 2CV is the closest modern thing to a 7. Light, all comes apart ( sometimes by its self) All mechanicals fixed to the chassis, ideal for a special and every sub component I used to be able to lift. An absolute hoot to drive anywhere. Pete
Always wish I had a lathe there are so many things I could have used one for. But the opportunity and funds were never in the same place. Pete |
