Looks very nice Marty, If anyone ever whats the metal work sand blastered and powder coating then I can arrange for Johnsons ironworks near King's Lynn at a very good price. Keep the pictures coming Marty.

Retro Andy.

Looking good Marty! How did you clean up the motor 'fingers' and surround?

Thanks. Will have a go over the half term, both of mine are looking rather filthy.
