+1 like for losing stuff right in front of you. I do that all the time!
To be fair, that was a damned good hiding spot! 😂❤
I've lost stuff before, but this was a whole new level, it took me an age to find it, but I was laughing about it for a while. All the best, Matt. 👍
Hi Matt. It's those evil workshop ghosts working overtime moving things around.
Indeed RB, shame I didn't have the camera rolling at the time of its disappearance, I could have looked back and found it quicker. 😂. All the best, Matt 👍
Next time you drop in, remind me to lend you my magnetic drill. Makes life much easier. When do the hoodies go on general release matey?🤓 You are making great progress Matt, love the "clues" carefully stored around the workshop... Looking forward to seeing two completely different Tinks in Steam next year. Lots of Rum and SC to celebrate perhaps?
Grum, I would so love a mag drill, would make drilling the holes for the cylinders much easier, you know them ones I haven't done yet. Nobody has noticed the Easter eggs until now, you don't miss a thing!! Hopefully we shall be both in steam, you can have the Southern Comfort, I'll have the Rum. All the best buddy, Matt 👍
Have you maybe considered getting a cordless drill with an all metal chuck? An absolute world of improvement over the plastic chucks.
Enjoying the build
Hi Ross, to be honest, I wasn't aware you could get one!! Most interesting, I shall definitely be having a look into them, thank you. All the best, Matt 👍
Nice finished part chap love the addition of the rounded ends and the gussets , details make the project
Thanks GaGa, much appreciated. We shall be soon onto the serious stuff that makes it actually move!! All the best, Matt. 👍
great video Matt

Heyyyyyyyyyy Up Ar Kev, I would love a radial arm drill!! Its on my list of machines I want....... would come in very handy for making tube plates for boilers!! 🤪. All the best Buddy, Laterzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, Matt 👍👍
Had a similar thing happen a few months ago. Made some spacers for a gearbox, got a call, went talking came back, one of them had vanished. I work alone, wasn't on the floor, nowhere else. Two days later i gave up and made another part. The next day after, i found the bloody spacer gripped on my swarf magnet which is attached with a loop to my mill. The thing had fallen off the mill, somehow, and got itself stuck to the magnet. Probably would've found it before making another part if i hadn't been so pissed off i didn't even clean the mill from the previous operation.
They drive you nuts, these "disappearance cases' in the shop. 😂
Absolutely does drive you nuts! 😂 All the best, Matt👍
Enjoyable as always
Thanks Rick, much appreciated, All the best, Matt 👍
Great episode, sorry I was late.
A wizard is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to!! All the best, Matt.

So why didn’t you clean the surface up the pipes whole length before assembling the base and easy in the lathe? However, keep it up, cracking job, Ian
Now come on, its pre-primed.... its saving me a job of primer painting it again later 😂, no point taking it off to put it back on again. Hope you had fun on your holidays over here!! All the best, Matt 👍
All them gusset’s aid traction, as well as stopping things bending…… 🚂
Need all the weight I can get for traction, I have a couple of powerful heavyweights to keep up with 😉.
The piece of steel is sort of like when you can’t find your pencil and finally find it behind your ear 😂
Haha, yes definitely!! I couldn't believe it when I found it, I hunted high and low, really confused me. Funny though. All the best, Matt
…. or your glasses that are sitting on your nose…
😂
Most of been a bloody strong brew, not seeing things 😀
I don't do weak brews Andy, we got to taste the tea!! All the best, Matt 👍
