“Bread Board” Display Box mounted on a lazy susan.

Boys and Girls,

Not necessarily an inspiring project, however, it fills out the last episode in my trilogy of  Fumanchu Fool Who Chewed. 

 

For once I am struggling to get the next new puzzle project formulated and that’s why the Fritz Flogs are flogging hogging the limelight… do not fear Pottzy I have plenty, rather on the wind than in the wind, however, my bowels seem to be blocked up and in the wind is having trouble escaping from the business end.

 

In the meantime,  this post that was published at LJ on 20 Mar, 2021, will fill the bill.

 

 

Boys and Girls

 

Nothing like resurrecting old projects… It's like going back to Dr. Plastic for that touch-up on the previous face lift.

 

Who said "the duck just buys the tools and jigs that he can afford but don't use?"…  Well it wasn't me, as I always finish saying, "don't  need!"…

Consequently I thought I'd allay all those derogatory rumours and prove those dissidents wrong.

 

It all started when some visitor said that the picture in my father's  'bread board'

was looking a bit insipid and lacking of colour.  Never letting an insult go unchallenged, I decided to remove the cover,

and turn the display case around to face the window

in order to catch a few UV rays on that cherubic face in the picture. Unfortunately gravity and friction decided to oppose me and heralded a potential to scratch the top of my video game's gun cabinet,

Furthermore, with my meticulous attention to precision, the door was flush with the cabinet and as the display hung over the top of the door, opening it dragged it's top on the underside of the display case base… klaxon sounded panic stations.

 

This was unacceptable and decided to ease the conflict by one of majuvla's (Ivan to new LJ members) lazy susans (LS)… well not one of his, that would be theft, but plagiarise his idea of LSs. Nevertheless it (the LS) must have been Croatian as it was an approx. 230mm in diameter… ya gotta brave the video for the evidence.

 

I set the wheels in motion… ok, rode the lift to the workshop, armed with the condemned display case (in my arms)… and without my indoctrinated support of SketchUp, actually formulated the shape of a basic circle in my brain for the base of the LS.…

 

Unfortunately my routine being disrupted by the abandonment of my standard preliminary SketchUp session, I forgot to take pictures and you only have the support of the video I made, with my typical incoherent rambling.

If not for the video, you could not have observed the following processes… (or skip reading further and watch the video),

All those above processes would have generated many pictures and a bloody long project… consider yourself spared.

 

After I started drafting this project, I remembered to continue and take pictures, however,  if you want to know what the above itemised bullshit is all about, you'll have to persevere through the video… linked somewhere  ↓ (not repeating again).

 

I quickly detected another problem… the project is now finished, so all you get pictures of is the display box on-top of the LS, back in its resting place,

 

Again I outdid myself with the video, not in any improvement in quality, but making it longer than some (ok, most) of my dragged out projects…

I normally avoid builds in videos as we all know how to operate a TS, DP, BS, ROS and GU, and filming that just drags the video out even more… however, I have used quite a few of my jigs and items I have reviewed, so I unashamedly kept the recording turning over.

To facilitate shorter attention spans I have split the video into 2 installments,

As always, my videos come warts and all… except the vino which I don't share.

 

Keep safe jocks... and your jocks safe!
