Completely reworked the saddle this weekend, looks and feels better. Also had a play with Caths sewing machine on the leather I bought. Seems to see it fine, so there is a plan forming for my Christmas distractions now.

Right. The bolt on is on the road. Next weekend I tidy up and start again on my main build. Feeling much more enthusiastic now.

Sometimes you just need to take a break from a project to get your enthusiasm back. Onwards!

Workshop clean and tidy. Bits and bats ordered, bank holiday weekend coming up.

Now i have a confession to make....

I have messed about with the saddle a lot and never got it to feel right. At the weekend i just placed the old seat of my late mums invalid wagon thing on, and it feels brill, but looks like Sh*!

What a decision to make, form or function? Arrrrgggg..

Hi All

Just reporting in due to a PM from JJ

Been busy with work this past while, and travelling a lot. Done a little on my build (I bought a sewing machine so have been playing with the seats).  Will try to get some pics up sometime.

Should have been on sooner. Don't know why I didn't. Spent the afternoon doing lots of bits and pieces. Nothing to show as such but all needed doing. I think.

Got an afternoon outside today. Did some work on the bench seat and added a small piece to the frame.
