Chains


Chain drilling - it's an absolute joy. your heart just sings while you grind out endless 1.5mm holes in soft plastic. This is though the best way of doing this, cutting is a no no, so it's drill and file all the way... nearly there.
The  missing Wills windows have arrived in the post hotfoot from Devon. I haven't opened the pack yet, but I may have extras. This, the the news that it may be a good time to buy a secondhand diesel VW and the fact that the Bay City Rollers are re-forming means that my life is surely complete.

  1. I drill a couple of holes and use a fret-saw with a fine blade. Much easier and only needs a little cleaning up with a file.

  4. MC: I have a coping saw, but it's more of a fiddle threading the blade though than the drilling.
