Hi David ,
You are right I had just been knocking some dents out with that hammer and those bars kept rolling about so just used the hammer to keep the bits of bar in place to take photo I used a heavy blacksmiths type hammer to forge the ends of the bar :thumbup:
I always buy hammers when I see them so have no excuse for using the wrong hammers lol.
Cheers Mick

Hi Lads , got a bit more done with the cabinets. Number 3 cabinet has castors fitted, also been stripped and dents knocked out and filled etc, this was the best condition cabinet but some how seemed to take just as long to do as the other two. I had a major job sweeping dust etc up and getting the loose bits of paint debris blown out/ vacuumed out of the cabinets so there will be a chance of half decent finish without lots of bits in the paint.
Anyway here are the three lined up all dusted off , blown out with the air line and ready for primer, the draws are balanced on top of them but can not really be painted in place or balanced on the units in any way so will do them on the floor.
So far so good, all primed inside and out, including the draws. Its not ideal doing all three like this space wise but too much hassle to do them one or two at a time then do it all over again. The draws will have to be laid out better for top coat, the other round thing is an unbreller stand that was looking rusty so hit that with primer too and will do it black with the shelves.
Hopefully after a slight sand tomorrow they will be getting top coat on.
Cheers Mick.

They are looking first class
I reckon a nice camo green/brown might look good Mick
But a bright blue hammer tone, you could go clinical white

Iron grey please Mick so they match my pair. Then put them on a pallet and I'll get them collected :lol:
