Hollow float 60p

A 1kg roll costs between £10 and £13. The fluorescent was £13.
The black float has 20% infill and weighs 94 grams.
The fluorescent one has 10% infill so will weigh less.
The next one to print will be hollow using all my odds and ends so will be multi coloured.
So to answer your question including running costs less than a quid and no postage. Plus I can change the dimensions and I don’t have to wait.

Raised radiator and removed grill. Also relocating filler to make sure no air locks.

This is not a picture of Yorkshire thrifty mersey mud import, but a demo of the close driving racey stuff engaged in last wknd.
The driver left behind evidence of his explosive bowel movement as his duct narrowly didn't contact my duct.  :o
P S he was going the other way! My collision avoidance radar has been playing up recently.

I'll have you know- importing mersey river water needs a licence. Luckily its radio activity is minimal. Enjoy.
Ps Barrel thimble thing looks cool in black.  8)
Coffee perhaps better in black also? ;)


Any update on your Beemer overhotness or were you just trying to avoid being seen with me?
Old people have feelings too.
Some of MY Bits don't work very well but hey I've been about a long time. :-\

Good Morning Gazza.  :-*
Your Yorkshire thrift has left little detail in your picture.
Can you expand the detail please as various aspects remain unclear.


Or am I going blind? 8)
