paulnb57 Slide chalenge build, the Driftwood-O-Caster!

Not much to see here.....since the anouncement of the chalenge I have been searching for a piece of gnarly timber for the build, so every day, I go down here, which is about 10mins walk from my house

So it made sense to try and find a suitable piece of driftwood, well, today was the day, looks like a pallet slat, but mahogany ish, although its hard to tell because it is waterlogged.........poind coin for scale

Total cost so far......£0.00!

Well done that man! I have a piece I think k would be great but without a workshop is useless. Can't really be routing in my hallway

that's a pretty awesome start - I hope you are maintaining as much of the look of it as possible

Thats the plan Wez, I'm probably going to make something Lap Steel ish and dont intend to do much more than use this plank as a platform to mount other bits to, every day on the beach I will try and find other flotsam and jetsam to use.....
