  2. Nice job Pete. You've heard the saying "a camel is a horse designed by a committee..!" Well I take responsibility as part of the design committee. In the end, the box was so heavy that we did not need as many bricks and mortar. Swings open nicely though. Just a slight push. Can't wait for the paint.

  3. Thanks for finishing off the cutting of the box Paul. Our cutting gear was never made to cut 6mm steel plate...
    I understand your also installing bolts to project into the box for the cement to key onto which makes it safer.
    Thanks for that - see you soon.
