I think you should patent your design and sell 'em. The standard ones look like tin foil. :lol:
There's three ways of doing things:

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

Make them sell with min profit sell more or make lots profit ones and sell lots less. then selling start making gards and other stuff make tidy profit if you sell at right low price you sell lots but make sure you put a trade mark on it right price I have few bits it would pay for your own stuff

i have used some old suzuki sj runners i had and had to cut down the standard seat frame,the seat is BIG and only just fits with the door shut,its all done apart from a locking mechanism to stop it tilting forward.

had to make a new work bench today as mr brother rang and said he wanted his shelfs back :twisted: after 3 years of them being in the garden :roll:


as you can see i need to get a suction fan as it gets abit smoky in there so if anyone has one i can have that would be great.
