If he's like me it takes ages to come up with the design/drawings deciding what and seeing how to do it etc actual cutting tacking and welding is not that long................. thats what its like for me anyway

Nah it was all the time he spent on the CAD CAM machine and doing finite stress analyses to predict what will happen when you smite it on an oak tree :rolleyes:

Perhaps he bought some 80mm bar instead of tube and was too embarrassed to take it back for the right stuff. He spent all that time drilling a hole through it! :D

Mind you - judging by the angle of the joint closest to the vent flap, he tried to do the job while hanging from the rafters. :P

Les. :)
