Albert here..!!! Yep, still alive..!!! What's the buzz..??? You may well ask 'cos there's been plenty since I last posted. Let's just quickly recap on the world outside The 'Old Sidevalve Bar'. Brexit arguments about shrimps and sausage with VdL are long forgotten (but probably not resolved)as my route to the T.E.T. just become yet more difficult. No Channel Ferries!!! All moored at port with engines off! P&O sacked all the UK chaps!! Replacing with Filipeno oarsmen that appreciate the lash and only the occassional coin to spend. Bollocks to P&O ! Covid19? Dunno....no news updates on daily infections...so it must be ok?..ignorance is bliss......get back to work ya lazy tossers!! The Covid party is over!
Despite the price of electricity doubling I've still been using power tools....and welders....and lathe... Gonna make the Blauwe Muis a muffler to fit the end of the 'power pipe'. Maybe it will cut noise and arrest sparks (the later which could set the whole of Flanders alight if the grass is dry...eeeekkkk!) My original plan being to use the old Yamaha TY250 mono muffler I had in stock but changed mi mind.
A short piece of 63mm stainless tubing was purchased on line. End plates were cut from 3mm stainless government stock and the pipe entry and exit were from made from the power pipe off-cuts. Much welding and grinding was to follow.
That's the muffler outers complete. Need to get back 'on line' and get mi'self some perforated stainless tube now to run through the inside. Keep tuned for more muffler action.
In the meantime 'Stay safe' ....and keep those sparks down..
