Busy busy busy...

Listening to: [ Maroon 5 - Sunday morning ]

Taking advice from monin's comments (Friday, Jan 07, 2005 --Ed.) <--comic book 'in' joke :P

I can finally move on to bigger things.

I have almost completed my present for helen and should be able to finish it within 2 days.

The middle layer of acrylic is on and the hard part is waiting for it to dry before i can finish up the middle 2 and top layer.

It's looking quite nice... i'll take a snap shot before i send it off.

Gracie's also been working on something and again her work looks very promising. It's a pity i don't get a chance to see her often because we are both working a lot.

Meanwhile, i've reviewed my room makeover and haven't yet settled on the colour scheme.
So far i'm leaning towards a light grey with a blue tinge primary and a darker variant for a feature wall (if you can't see it, wait a couple of days and it will be up).

The first piece of "furniture" as i would like to call it (something that Gracie clearly doesnt regard as furniture) is my "BLING BIN"

It's a stainless steel 'fully schick' bin that i think is ultra cool. One step at a time i think and what other great way to re-vamp the room than bloody "bling bin".
Other stuff on the agenda is to draft up my letter to Uni and find my police report (hopefully sorting through the shit stored in my room will be a start) and help Chow find his treasure.

Speaking of treasures, i've managed to get hold of a 4AGE (Red top, 100kw) head that will go into the shitbox. It's missing so many parts but nothing like a good project to be proud of when i finish. The head should bolt straight into the existing block with maybe some modifications required to the head gaskets, bearings and re-allocation of the alternator and other bits and pieces.

Without further adue, i now bring you ... THE BLING BIN! *followed by wave of loud cheers and applauses...*

p.s: As a treat, i've changed the template to the blog for 2005 ;) (Not like anyone reads my crap anyway.)
