There's nowt wrong here.  :thumbup:

But, we do have funny neighbours. Them over the fence, who cause all the problems.......  ::)

Would you like to have to live next door to you?

My neighbours think I'm a little treasure ...

I sign for their parcels ..

And victimise them with my tomato glut ..  :thumbup:

I also keep the noise below 140 dBA ... err... occasionally.

PS   Taller fence ???

Adapted the feeding bowl/ base.

Piece of 10mm ply. 7.5" square. Screwed bowl on, concentric..........




Then screwed to faceplate.......




Faceplate in r/t chuck, and 2mm endmill..............




No problem! Then opened out to size.......




The square backing ply, rested on the machine table holding against rotating. While opening out the doorway.......




The corners locked into the T slot. For the rear vents.......




Rear view......




Front view.......



Made myself a start up burner.
Nub end of 3/4” brass. Opened out to 12mm x 1/2” deep. Stuffed with wick, will hold enough meths to burn for 2 mins or so. Then swap to tealight.




Now, need to experiment to find the optimum candle height......

That was cleaver Dave:-it didn't come out as a dogs dinner  :D.

When you hand the board vertical what was it clamped to, from the pic it looked like you were using sky hooks  :scratch:

Thanks Stew! 

I was a bit pleased.... No distemper, or hard pad. The whole job went much better than expected. (Very thin stainless spinning).  :D



Sky hooks? Nah! Not even a short leash......

I have a tilting r/t. Faceplate boss, gripped in chuck jaws. Just angled it over, until the ply edge, or corner, rested on the machine table.
I could then take off, and re set to position, as often as needed...... :thumbup:
