Been loving this build, top stuff, but WTF is going on with the fruit table top! I didn't know the 70's were back!
Infact i think you've ruined it, give it to me I'll sort it out and you can build a new one and do a decent job on it this time! D3 HSE MY05 Auto

If you mean Peterborough ..then yes i have penciled in the dates G4 Gone ...but not forgotten
My Sankey is currently sat in the paddock with 22 fence posts and two 6' metal gates in it. On Friday it will have two sheep in it. In about 6 weeks time it will contain two Tamworth weaners.
I think it might be a while before I am allowed to start cutting my Sankey about I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Ok, not sure where it all went wrong, but I was sitting around the other day and suddenly though "what happened to wiggs sankey project?", only to find the forum stopped sending me notifications on PAGE 23!
Most productive Monday morning in the office ever catching up!
Top job wiggs, I know exactly what you mean about taking it all apart over and over and I think the long run you will be chuffed you did to get such a top quality finish. The only thing I can see wrong with it is the 18v Andersons in vanity Orange to match the colour scheme, 12v is yellow you know
By the way, the big millets frying pan and stew pot are good value, but don't over-heat them on the stove, my MSR dragonfly managed to absolutely weld a chicken fajhita mix to the base of the big pan, think it got a bit too hot!
Did you track how many hours it took in total? (or did SWMBO?!)

I think an MSR stove can weld water to the bottom of most pans! Although the dragonfly has more control, so I can only assume you were a little to eager!
I've got the same coleman pans as Wiggs has and they are a really good bit of kit for not much money, although they are big so not ideal on a small stove, but great for a big family pasta.D3 HSE MY05 Auto

I any case they are a nice fit for that hole in the kitchen, almost like they were made for it
