That's no winter, thus no excuse for not working ;)



I am working...just not on the things I'd rather be doing  :'(...sadly Wargaming does not pay the bills and for my very expensive wife and children.. :D

Main issue I see is working outside in the "cold" your not moving quickly enough to generate sufficient body-heat to keep warm and get the other paid work done.

May I suggest re-tasking the lady wife to encourage you to "move faster" so that you get it done, likely melting the snow in the process?

Possibly give her a whip to do the encouraging?

She can take Whip shots to post along with your WIP shots.....?

 :D

We wanna see your skills and erupting volcano project!

I know you have all month but still - moRe pls.

I would suggest getting cheaper kids but there is no such thing....

I have a devil helper just like that.

Well perhaps a bit rounder...

Not sure its a good idea - almost as expensive as kids.

Re: Eric the Shed builds a VOLCANO (update - cladding)

Managed to finish work early and so braving the weather outside I started cladding the volcano..



The bark is being held with strong adhesive and bbq skewers - these will get trimmed prior to painting...

I am going to try and finish the cladding by the end of the week...

I don't even dare to wonder, how much that amount of cork would cost around here.
Looks really good.

It's looking great Giles. It's a cracking old pace you've set.

I can't believe how fast you're progressing. I've got a couple of these hairy helpers myself, but mine are useless ...

You're missing one of the twin peaks of Kilimanjaro!

Very nice job so far.  How many more cork logs do you have to add?
