With the motto "Stuff expands to fill the available space," you have to be a little more careful about acquiring stuff! The less space you have, the more you have to think about what you really need, and why, you really need it and so on and so forth. "Nice to have" is not a sufficient reason, the way it might be for someone with a big space to fill. So... well done; thanks for the look around! Looking forward to seeing a little more of working on that engine, if you're able to show us.
I have stuff under the tables that I need to sift through. Stuff that I keep 'just in case' . Happy to do more engine build posts, Im never really sure what to put on my feed here and when I do put something on its not very professional LOL. I havent got the smarts ( or time really ) to do set ups and editing etc. Thanks for checking in. 🤙
@@bonesshed. I think I get it. I certainly don't want to presume to manage your time for you! :) But try thinking of it this way: Some people come to your channel because they're making something and they want to see how you did it. But I think, *probably*, many more people come because building a this thing or a that thing is interesting. There are lots of people are just interesting in making things, or doing things. Some of them are called "makers". :) Very generic! So at least for now, I won't be building an engine, but I appreciate good craftsmanship, and good techniques, and how other people handle it when something doesn't go exactly right... :-) and so on. So since your channel includes the word "shop" in the title, I'll watch anything you have to offer! I just like this stuff, that's all. About the time thing, that's all yours to decide, and a potential deal-breaker. I guess my hope would be that you could find some way to minimize the camera's intrusion, and to simplify the editing; really just make it simple and pretty fast. Maybe the videos aren't as slick as somebody else's, but I don't think that matters! If you were to just have a camera somewhere nearby, turn it on, and talk a little bit while you work, I'd be okay with that. Some presenters don't do much editing at all; maybe two or three splices in the whole thing. I think if it were me, I'd try putting little cues in there somehow. Maybe fire a flash or something at an "edit point"; I don't know. Anyway... the kind of thing I'd dwell on during a cold winter's evening on the floor in front of the fire. 🙂
One thing I didnt do was to lag under the floor. When its cold it comes up through the boards a bit ! Ive put some thick workshop type carpet down in the clean side which helps but I thought of drilling some small holes in various places and squirting expanding foam down. If you're out there in winter I would defo recommend putting lagging down.
I was in the RAF for a long ish time as a Survival Equipment fitter. We worked closely with the Armourers who serviced seats. Here is the link to the finished article :-) Thank you www.gasgasbones.com/us16e-ejection-seat
How big is the space? The proportions seem similar to what I have but you have managed to shoehorn in more machines. You don't have 3 motorcycles in there, which may be part of it.
Yes, Indeed ! I had a thick 20mm slab of outdoor shuttering laid over the counter where the Whittle engine is and into the part where im standing at the beginning of the video. This was supported underneath and screwed down. I then had a separate bit of shuttering on top of that and coming out of the door by 3-4 feet which was supported by a metal framed work table. Then me and a mate winched it up with an engine hoist and plonked it on. After that it was reasonably easy to walk/slide it in position. I was dreading doing it but it actually turned out smoother than expected !
Great set up thanks for showing your workshop👍

Fabulous space. I am in the process of doing a workshop shed and this video was awesome to have.

@@bonesshed. That is very good advise. Thank you.

Why model an ejector seat….am I missing something?

How are you getting along with your dividing head? Is it any good and if so can you point me in the direction of one to buy?

Each shed/garden office was 10 x8 foot
So the mill, 30 stone weighs 190.5 kg / 420lbs..significant weight in tight areas..with safety risk if done incorrectly..
